Life in Hulme’s crescents Conceived in the 1960's & hailed as a showpiece of urban redevelopment. Inspired by the Georgian terraces in Bath. Four years after being built, they had
degenerated into modern-day slums, plagued by leaking roofs, cracks in the walls, a lack of security, high fuel bills, broken lifts, damp and noise.
Communal areas became crime hotspots. Lack of “defensible space” was an issue.
Sense of community disappeared. Problems of marginal members of society increased.
Flats built with extensive garage areas yet car ownership very low. Demolition in 1998 followed period of “decapitation”. Their notoriety was one of the factors which gave impetus to the extensive
redevelopment of Hulme seen today. Unemployment a feature of industrial decline during 1970’s & 1980’s was a
further problem that needed addressing in a new wave of regeneration.
