Inside the new neighbourhood that will soon become 'the coolest place to live in Greater Manchester'

A new neighbourhood in and around a redeveloped 18th-century mill in Stockport will become the 'coolest' and 'possibly the best place to live in Greater Manchester', one of its bosses has said as it reached a new milestone.
Work began on a £60m redevelopment of Weir Mill in the town centre in July last year. As well as the mill buildings themselves, which are undergoing a painstaking restoration, the development also features a 14-storey tower block that sits next to, and rises above, Stockport's iconic viaduct.

The project is expected to be completed in around nine to 10 months. Adam Higgins, co-founder of Capital and Centric, the developer behind the project, told attendees at the ceremony that it would be the 'coolest' and 'possibly the best place to live in Greater Manchester' when it's completed.
Speaking to the M.E.N afterwards, he said: "I think it is. It's the quality of what's being created here. Everything we're doing here is worthy of any city centre in the UK.
"It's worthy of something in London, but we're actually
