Tall cranes

One of the cranes has gone from 3 Piccadilly now. The other is much reduced in height & not nearly so elegant. I shall miss them

I think I am going to like the new building with its postmodern take on 'red brick' - metallic panels with the proportions of bricks much magnified in size - & its elegant curve

In the sunshine it is magnificent but then theres always the problem of how it works under leaden skies

Im glad it leaves open a vista to the Minshull St courts

The work has been of exceptional quality, at least to this untrained observer. Apart from the impressive quality of the equipment, the men looked purposeful, confident, quietly satisfied. A reliable indicator of a well managed organisation, I always think
