Current broadcasting office of BBC Manchester. Soon to be relocated when their new building is completed. The new complex will be a 'media city' and based at Salford Quays near the Lowry. The BBC say they will move several major departments - Children's, Sport, New Media, Five Live and Research and Development - out of London to Salford by 2011. http://www.bbc.co.uk/info/buildings/new_dev/move_north.shtml
