Lombard Chambers
Lombard Chambers is all that remains of Brook's Bank, the original building which opened in 1868, continued through to King Street. William Cunliffe Brooks, MP for East Cheshire, was a very wealthy banker and commissioned George Truefitt to design a building worthy of his financial institution. It has some unusual architectural features such as the spiky metal cage at the top of the tower.

4 Clarence Street, Manchester
Clarence House nicely rounds the corner of Clarence Street and Tib Lane. It is probably early Victorian, with arcaded windows divided by giant pilasters, and a fine pedimented doorcase.
A few days before submission (February 2012) its 8,000 square feet of office space were sold for £2.8 million.

1 Booth Street, Manchester
Built 1846-47 by R.E. Whittaker for R.H. Greg & Co (remembered in the current name, Gregs Buildings). A simple design, but attractive in its combination of stone and red brick, and the quality of its modest details. Pevsner notes its importance as an example of "fireproof construction applied to a warehouse, with cast-iron columns and beams and brick jack arches. Manchester warehouses seldom adopted this form, preferring to stick to the cheaper option of timber floors." Grade II listed.
It is being marketed as high-quality "boutique" offices, which makes a nice change from all those low-quality offices being advertised, but I've no idea what boutique means in this context.
