Harvester House, Peter Street, Manchester
Very imposing Classical stone-faced warehouse, by Clegg & Knowles, c1868. Diminishing decoration to the windows and rusticated arcades to the ground floor. Grade II listed.
It was built for Ralli Brothers, shipping merchants. Now retail outlet at street level (occupants at the time of the photo, Double Take Studios, have since gone into administration), and offices above.

Peter Street, Manchester
Hard to believe this was taken around 12-00pm on a Friday in a major city where's all the traffic!? 100 years ago the place would have been jammed with horse-drawn carts, trams, cars, people and every mortal thing. Credit Crunch!! Looks the end of the world to me!
