Very interesting. A lot looks different, but a lot looks the same.

Thanks Wooscary,

Yes, Thankfully the War Memorial has captured that space and saved it to let the light in for us all. Though the tram moved in quite close.

I wish the older buildings were still with us. So far as I remember the Musicians' Union was in a room above the Halle shop. I remember having to visit that office in the mid-1950s.

Brilliant photo - and I had no idea Elizabeth House took the place of these buildings. I wish it hadn't.
