In 2015 I was commissioned by Urban & Civic Plc to photograph the Renaissance Hotel located on Deansgate and Blackfriars Street, Manchester from various City viewpoints. The view of Greater Manchester from the the roof top of the Hotel is spectacular! The 15 story skyscraper, originally an office block was designed by architects Crickshank & Seward and built in 1972.
