A WARNING has been fired to the developers of one of Manchester’s most iconic buildings who stand accused of ‘letting the city down’.
Town hall bosses have been left disgruntled over the state of the Rylands building, on Market Street, which was home to the city centre’s Debenhams store until its closure in May 2021.
Coun Pat Karney, city centre spokesperson at Manchester council, slammed the building as the city’s ‘scruffiest’ last month.
The town hall says it was given promises that the old Debenhams would be tidied up as soon as possible.
But weeks later, the once proud department store still has smashed windows and graffiti.
