The city underneath

Landmarks

25 places Manchester is built out of, plus 367 commemorative plaques — the fort, the libraries, the cotton money, the protests, and the names on the walls. Years on landmarks are when the place became itself. Plaque years are when the marker went up. Walk the big sites on the walking tour, or drink near the end of it on the bar crawl.
