Few cities in the world have embraced social change so heartily as MANCHESTER . From engine of the Industrial Revolution to test-bed of contemporary urban design, the city has no realistic provincial English rival. Its domestic dominance expresses itself in various ways, most swaggeringly in the success of Manchester United, the richest football club in Britain, but also in a thriving music and cultural scene that has given birth to world-beaters as diverse as the Hallé Orchestra and Oasis. Moreover, the city's concert halls, theatres, clubs and café society are boosted by England's largest student population and a blossoming gay community whose spending-power has created a pioneering Gay Village. For inspiration, Manchester's planners look to Barcelona - another revitalized industrial powerhouse - and, like Barcelona, the promise of a major sports event has powered much of the recent urban regeneration. The city didn't get the Olympics, though it wasn't for the want of trying, but instead landed the 2002 Commonwealth Games .
Manchester's rapid growth was the equal of any flowering of the Industrial Revolution - from little more than a village in 1750 to the world's major cotton-milling centre in only a hundred years. The spectacular rise of Cottonopolis , as it became known, came from the production of competitively priced imitations of expensive Indian calicoes, using machines evolved from Arkwright's first steam-powered cotton mill, which opened in 1783. The rapid industrialization of the area brought prosperity for a few but a life of misery for the majority. Exploitation had worsened still further by the time the 23-year-old Friedrich Engels came here in 1842 to work in his father's cotton plant, and the suffering he witnessed - recorded in his Condition of the Working Class in England - was a seminal influence on his later collaboration with Karl Marx, the Communist Manifesto.
Manchester is noted for its excellent theatres. Larger venues include the Opera House, a commercial theatre promoting large scale touring shows which regularly plays host to touring West End shows, the Palace Theatre and the Royal Exchange Theatre, a large producing theatre located in Manchester's former cotton exchange. The Library Theatre is a small producing theatre situated in the basement of the city's central library and the Lowry is a large touring venue in Salford.
If Manchester can be said to have a centre, it's St Peter's Square and the cluster of buildings focused on it. South of here, the former Central Station now functions as the G-Mex exhibition centre, with the Hallé orchestra's home, Bridgewater Hall , opposite; Chinatown (Britain's largest) and the Gay Village are just a short walk to the east; while to the northeast, the revamped Piccadilly Gardens provides access to the so-called Northern Quarter , the funkiest of the regenerated inner-city areas. To the southwest is the Castlefield district, site of the Museum of Science and Industry . Eastern spine of the city is Deansgate , which runs from Castlefield to the Cathedral and, in its northern environs, displays the most dramatic core of urban regeneration in the country, centred on Exchange Square . Other city-centre diversions string out along the main southern artery Oxford Road . Southwest of the centre, trams run out to Salford Quays where the renovated docks and quays now maintain two high-profile visitor attractions, The Lowry arts centre and the Imperial War Museum North ; and no soccer fan will want to miss the tour of nearby Old Trafford , home of Manchester United.
Manchester is located on the River Irwell and at the foot of the southern slope of a range of hills. It has some geographic features which were influential in its early development as an industrial city. These are its proximity to a sea port at Liverpool, the availabilty of water power and nearby coal reserves.
Manchester has a damp climate and a reputation as a rainy city. The average annual rainfall is 809mm, meaning that this reputation is relatively undeserved. This total is less than Plymouth, Cardiff, Glasgow, and Edinburgh for example. In international terms, Manchester receives substantially less rain than New York City, which receives 1200mm of rain in an average year and the average annual rainfall total is comparable with that of Rome.
