At the end of the 1970s, Manchester seemed to be sliding into the dustbin of history. Today the city is an international destination for culture and sport, and one of the fastest-growing urban regions in Europe. This book gives a first-hand account of what happened in between.
The Impact of a Light Rail System on the Structure of House Prices: A Hedonic Longitudinal Study
1996
In 1992 two conventional railway lines in Greater Manchester were replaced by a new light rail system called Metrolink, which offered rail access to the city centre. This paper uses hedonic price methodology to examine whether any of the claimed benefits were capitalised in house prices. No discernible effect in the pattern of house prices was found when comparing \"before\" and \"after\" results. This finding contrasts with claims made for urban transit schemes in other countries. Reasons for the differences and methodological problems with the current literature are discussed. /// Im Jahre 1992 wurden in Greater Manchester zwei konventionelle Schienenstrecken durch ein modernes Stadtbahnsystem namens \"Metrolink\" ersetzt, das die Erreichbarkeit des Stadtkerns auf dem Schienenweg ermöglicht. Die Studie überprüft mit Hilfe der hedonistischen Preis-Analyse, ob die erwarteten Nutzengewinne auch in den Immobilienpreisen kapitalisiert wurden. Der Vorher-Nachher-Vergleich wies im Gegensatz zu den Argumenten, die in anderen Ländern zugunsten solcher öffentlicher Nahverkehrssysteme angeführt werden, keine nennenswerten Änderungen der Immobilienpreisstruktur aus. Mögliche Gründe für diese Unterschiede und methodische Probleme werden unter Bezugnahme auf die aktuelle Literatur diskutiert. /// En 1992, deux lignes ferroviaires conventionnelles dans Greater Manchester furent remplacées par un nouveau système de métro, appelé Metrolink, qui offrait un accès ferroviaire au centreville. Cet article utilise une méthodologie de prix hédonique pour examiner si certains des bénéfices proclamés étaient capitalisés dans les prix des habitations. Aucun effet perceptible dans la structure des prix des habitations n'a été trouvé, quand on compare les résultats \"avant\" et \"après\". Ce résultat fait contraste avec les prétentions faites dans d'autres pays pour les projets de transports urbains. On discute des raisons pour expliquer les différences ainsi que des problèmes méthodologiques avec la littérature actuelle. /// En 1992, dos líneas de ferrocarril convencionales en el Greater Manchester fueron reemplazadas por un sistema de tren ligero llamado Metrolink que ofrecía acceso al centro de la ciudad. Este artículo utiliza la metodología de precios hedónicos para examinar qué parte de los supuestos beneficios del sistema se han capitalizado en el precio de las viviendas. Cuando se comparan los resultados \"antes\" y \"después\" no se encuentra un efecto discernible en el patrón de los precios de la viviendas. Esta conclusión contrasta con los argumentos utilizados en otros paises para defender los sistemas de transporte urbano de masas. Se discuten algunas razones que explican las diferencias y dificultades metodológicas en la literatura actual.

PLANNING IN RESPONSE TO TERRORISM: THE CASE OF MANCHESTER, ENGLAND
2001
Urban terrorism and the physical damage it can cause are issues of growing concern for cities. Both the nature of the rapid action engendered by a major terrorist act and the longer-term more strategic response to the need for redevelopment can be improved by trying to learn from the experiences of cities which have already been in this position. This paper tells the story of the planning and related responses to the explosion of a terrorist bomb in the City Centre of Manchester, England, in June 1996, which in insurance liability terms was reportedly the worlds worst man-made disaster of that year. It focuses on the strategic planning approaches adopted and the key decisions taken in the nine month period immediately following the bomb, which is arguably the period which determines the shape of the remainder of the recovery process by virtue of these decisions.
