A permanent Monday morning

The sun shines on the apartments at MediaCityUK. The vision of the future seems to have come true. Far from the steady thrum of movement in central Manchester.  The light reflects off the glass and steel buildings which now populate this part of Salford. The luminescence of the scene is matched by its soullessness. Perhaps it has achieved its goal: a triumph of architectural design over the needs of society.  
 
 
The rats have all got rickets
They spit through broken teeth
The name of the game is not cricket
Caught out on Beasley Street
 
John Cooper Clarke, Beasley Street
 
...this was an environment built, not for man, but for man's absence.
