As well as much retail and commercial development, there has been a large increase in property development in recent years in Manchester and there are now over 5,000 residential properties in the City Centre, mostly in the form of apartments for rent.
There are a variety restaurants in the City Centre including restaurants owned by famous chef Paul Heathcote. There is also a stock of hotels in the area with Manchester's first five-star hotel, the Lowry Hotel opening in the City Centre in 2001. Manchester City Centre is home to Marks and Spencer, Selfridges and Harvey Nichols stores. Deansgate and Market Street are the city centre's principal retail streets. There is also a large indoor shopping mall called the Manchester Arndale Centre. There are many leisure facilities in the City Centre also with the recent opening of the Printworks, a large facility containing a cinema (including an IMAX screen), numerous bars, clubs and restaurants and also Manchester's first Hard Rock Cafe and Hard Rock Casino.

City Centre living in Manchester is predominantly concentrated on apartments. There are very few Houses for rent in the City centre itself. Those families & professionals looking for houses for rent need to look just outside the City centre in the suburbs.
The Northern Quarter, centered around Oldham Street, is known for its bohemian atmosphere and independent shops and cafes.
The landscaping of the City Centre has also provided several public spaces including the newly developed Piccadilly Gardens, which incorporates fountains, green spaces and a Metrolink station, as well as Exchange Square which is located near Urbis, which is an exhibition centre focusing on city life. Two of the City Centre's oldest buildings, The Old Wellington Inn and Sinclair's Oyster Bar, were dismantled, moved 300 meters and re-erected in 1999 to create the new Shambles Square adjacent to Manchester Cathedral There are other museums in Manchester City Centre including the Manchester Museum which contains many ancient artifacts and natural history items and the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry which includes many hands-on exhibits.
Manchester is famous for many things and not least its 2 premiership football teams Manchester United & Manchester City and numerous celebrities, sportspeople and musicians.
