    During the late 1940s through the 1980s, Manchester underwent regeneration where many terraced houses were replaced by low quality high-rise flats and residents were moved to housing estates on the periphery, though this brought few new jobs. From the 1990s onward, government funding helped create employment and improve the inner city through programs like the Trafford Park Urban Development Corporation and New East Manchester Plan. Additionally, the city authorities sought to change Manchester's image from its industrial past to attract new investment in culture, music, and sport to further stimulate the local economy and redevelopment.

    WWII-late 1980s

    Manchester the terraces were replaced by poor


    quality high rise or deck access flats

    Regeneration
    and many people were moved to
    local authority housing estates on the
    periphery. The redevelopment,
    however, brought very few jobs to
    the city.

    Government funding (brought together under the


    Single Regeneration Budget in 1995) has created
    both employment and improvements in the built
    environment across the inner city. Including the
    Trafford Park Urban Development Corporation in
    1987, and the New East Manchester Plan in 2000

    Urban re-imaging:
    The city authorities have sought to distance
    Manchester from its old image of cotton mills,
    industrial grime, etc. and reposition the city as a
    happening place which, of course, helps it attract
    new investment, including culture, music and sport

    Late 1980s to present day
