Amongst the modern buildings on Booth Street are these two nineteenth century buildings designed by architect Edward Salomons. The nearer, 8-10 Booth Street, was built in 1874 for the Manchester & Salford Trustee Savings Bank and now houses offices of Lloyds Bank and Atrium Capital. Next door to it, Massey Chambers was built 2 years earlier. Both are notable for their ornate Renaissance-style decorations carved into the stonework. Both are Grade II listed buildings http://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/514/listed_buildings_register/1908/a-z_of_listed_buildings_in_manchester/2 .
