The Northern Quarter of the great metropolis of Mancunia is under going serious gentrification, hi-rise blocks of apartments, being squeezed into every available space, all no doubt available for hard working local people on low salaries for greedy opportunists, venture capitalists from outside the UK snapping up what is available to then rent out at ridiculous prices to the gullible over paid and under worked yuppies. Mind you all the building work is sanctioned and agreed by the socialist controlling council, led by a neo-marxist mayor.
"Comrade everyone is equal, but some are more equal than others"
Now pass me another brown envelope.
Soon these faces will be gone, hidden or demolished
There are a set of roller shutters on some old buildings on Stevenson square, that every time I visit the city have changed, last time I uploaded I think they were bulls!
I guess there is a message behind these images, what I don't know.

I guess homage being paid to some of the "icons" that have Manchester connections.
Not for the purists

cheers @teamuksupport thanks for the support
I never seem to see all this, perhaps it's cuz I'm dragged into the Arndale and then it's all Nando's and Waterstones.
Grow a pair FFS 🤣😂😂
and you have never been in Affleks palace either?????????
It's boring now, I used to buy bootleg CD's there in the nineties. @dismayedworld likes it as it's different from the humdrum chain stores.
Agree with him, its a place I spend ages in when in the city, don't buy anything though as its all shite
Awesome streetart. Definitely with a strong message.
Very cool!
It’s a sad world we live in…
Have a nice day 👋🏻😎
it sure is, but life goes on
safe travels
Life does go on and we can make it fun our selves 😎😊
Thank you!
Any new traveling plans?
well bangladesh was amazing, best ever, just booked Azerbaijan for September and Ethiopia for November, I have decided to stay at home during the summer months as, last couple of years, I missed my garden in bloom due to travelling
where are you now?
Sounds awesome for traveling in the late year.
I can imagine… once in a while it’s good to be at home and see the garden change too.
Wayyyyy up north ☃️ got the keys now and the movers brought last Friday our belongings after 5 weeks. So busy busy with cleaning and unpacking for a change.
Internet isn't great at the moment. I am more remote than west coast of Scotland and rural Ireland combined. Have to try and get a better connection in the next week. So i can upload the last parts of the journey. So you see where i am now 😎
This time i will unpack every box hahaha haven’t done that for years. So it is like christmas 🎁 what would be in this box 📦
So that is good news, will you be staying longer than a couple of weeks? LOL
Thanks 😎
Thats the plan 😉 hahaha !LOL
Great graf. I've never been to Manchester or Liverpool for that matter.
In UK right now but down sowf. 😉
Ah ya need to come oop north LOl
Manchester is the place to be, not liverpool that is full of self pitying scousers!!
Enjoy your visit wherever you are????
Some old some new, good blend of street art found. Towns look more run down of late.
!BEER
cheers @joanstewart , run down areas, I think add character, amidst the towering glass monstrosities that are replacing them
My preference has always been old, new clinical look really not appealing.
agree entirely give me red brick and wood over concrete and glass
View or trade

BEER.Great selection of StreetArt... Gentrification is also taking its toll on Montreal, making it difficult to achieve a true social mix. The more equal generally don't want to see the less equal 😅. Thanks for sharing these pics on The StreetArt Community. The first pic "Not for the purists" looks like a work done by RX Skulls on my post Sticker Art #053.
Enjoy your weekend
cheers @heroldius those stickers are pretty cool
Wow! This place looks cool! I imagine myself walking down the streets looking at these awesome work of art. It must have taken the artist a lot of time making these huge pictures. I feel like walking in a museum.
So sad though if they will take this out. I think it adds beauty and character to the city.
I don't see graffiti's, murals or street art like these in my city that's why I find them beautiful.
cheers @aideleijoie , yes a lot of beauty in these artworks, especially in "the Northern Quarter" which is a bit studenty and hipsterish
Haha, I love that term studenty and hipterish! Cool!😍
LOL 😎
