On the ground floor is a pizza shop, which offers takeaways and a home delivery service. Next to it is the Golden Tandoori, another takeaway establishment, offering pizzas and kebabs. Above Larosa Pizza is the Piccadilly Club. Many old buildings are worth preserving, but Manchester has lost many gems which would have been as asset to the city. However this decrepit ugly row has surprisingly survived, although if anything deserved flattening, this would appear an ideal candidate. A purely personal view, of course, but it would undoubtedly make this area of Manchester a little bit less seedy looking.
