Mad_Cyril Always a familiar sight to me, whenever we would drive into Manchester when I was a kid it was M56 then up Princess Parkway past these (as opposed to the Thelwall Viaduct-M62 route).
The ultimate, quite horrifying realisation of Corbusier’s maxim ‘A house is a machine for living in’.

Despite the squat parties and creative spark that emerged from these places, we’re much better off without them.
Something about the British psyche perhaps that turns this style of living into one giant cesspit*. Hong Kongers live like this every day (including the walkways in the sky).
*Terrible construction could also have played a part, of course.
