Another one from today's walk with the 16-45. More documentary than art.
The Manchester Courts building sustained severe structural damage in the
September 4 earthquake. A campaign was mounted to try and save it, but
engineers declared it unsafe so the city council voted to condemn it and it's
currently in the process of being demolished.

It's a shame to see a significant historic building coming down like this. I
always thought of it as one of the city's more interesting structures. But
safety comes first and I really don't think it would have been feasible to
repair.
The building is well and truly fenced off and this is the best view I could get.
Here's some more info about the building.
