It's time for that Skywatch Friday feeling once again, and this was the scene on Tuesday's gloriously bright, late afternoon.
The Abito building on Greengate looks down on the now sadly abandoned wreck of the Waterloo pub that last served customers in 1984. There's a fascinating read on the pub's past (which started in 1815 as the Duke of Wellington) through and beyond its tacky sounding 1970s' heyday with guns, swords and fish tanks, can be read at a four year old blog post on the fabulous Pubs of Manchester blog (although as you may read there, I disagree with their opinions on Abito).
Ha the better sky again. Nice to see that glorious sunlight at sunset.
ReplyDeleteOlá! Lindo azul do céu! Um prédio tão grande, abandonado...
ReplyDeleteA contrast in buildings, but both stand out beautifully against that sky.
