Concrete seat, Joe Mercer Way, Sportcity, Manchester
There are several of these rather unappealing concrete seats on both sides of Joe Mercer Way. When almost everything else in the vicinity is so stylishly designed, it is strange that these ugly concrete blocks should have been provided. At least, they are not likely to get vandalised.
