EW on the left is part of what was the University of Manchester's Humanities Building. Built 1961-67 by the Building Design Partnership, of white and brown bush-hammered concrete. Short & Associates are responsible for the startling theatre, 1997-99. The bizarre chimneys, those on the left clad in zinc, are part of the ventilation system.
