Sportcity
Sportcity is the largest
concentration of sporting venues in Europe and was first developed to
host the Manchester Commonwealth Games in 2002. Work began in the 1990s
to
regenerate this extensive derelict site in East Manchester, which had suffered with the
collapse of traditional industries in the area. The 2002 Commonwealth
Games served as a
tremendous driver for regeneration, leaving this area with a legacy of
landmark sporting venues and a radically improved image.
