Exchange Square (Manchester)

Exchange Square (Manchester)

Exchange Square is located in the English city of Manchester. The square was heavily redeveloped after the IRA 1996 Manchester bombing. This reconstruction included the moving of two pubs to make room for the new Marks & Spencer store.

Today the square is a major shopping area including a branch of Selfridges, The Triangle shopping centre, a new entrance to the Manchester Arndale, including the world's largest Next store, the Printworks, and a number of pubs. The Triangle has a BBC Big Screen television attached to it facing an area containing ranked stone benching. To the south is New Cathedral Street and to the north, Shambles Square. The area is also home to many luxury brands boutiques including Chanel and Louis Vuitton.
