Corridor of Light - Our Beating Heart
Under the name Studio Vertigo, light artists Lucy McDonnell and Stephen Newby design objects that transform our day-to-day environment and turn the world upside down. For Corridor of Light, Our Beating Heart featured a giant mirror ball in the shape of a heart that slowly rotated on a vertical axis, creating a visual spectacle of thousands of spots of light moving in fantastical, swirling and changing patterns across Manchester’s newest neighbourhood, Circle Square.

Circle Square development
From 1974 to 2012 this area was occupied by buildings belonging to BBC Manchester. When the BBC moved out to MediaCityUK and the main building demolished it became a car park. It is now being transformed by the Circle Square development.

Site of New Broadcasting House
The site of the former New Broadcasting House, the regional headquarters of BBC North West. The building which was built on a site bounded by Oxford Road, Charles Street, Brancaster Street and the River Medlock,was built between 1971 and 1975; it was officially opened by Prime Minister James Callaghan in 1976.
The building was vacated in November 2011 when the BBC completed its move to MediaCityUK and, less than a year later, is now just a pile of rubble.
