THE PRINTWORKS:
- Hard Rock Café, Exchange Square
The Printworks is a former industrial building complex that was turned into a really nice entertainment and restaurants complex, with neon lights and high dark passages that make it looks like night, even daytime. It is situated at Exchange Square, next to Corporation St. Here you find UK:s second largest Hard Rock Café. In this 2-storey branch you find clothes, guitars and other equipment used by Elvis Presley, David Bowie, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Kiss, Slayer, Anthrax and more. You also find the largest ODEON cinema in the UK, theatres, night blubs, restaurants and cafés.
The transformation of this derilict Printworks building was part of the redevelopment of Manchester after the 1996 IRA bombing. It was the largest newspaper printing house from 1929 to 1986.
