    For interested MDDA readers, I keep a Salford Quays MediaCityUK Photographic Timeline Journal. This is currently made up of 14, 000 pictures starting from the first digger on site in June 2007 (pictures start in May 2007 when the site was just grassland).

    The timeline journal is updated weekly with the latest photos. The link below always redirects to the current month. The pictures are split by financial quarter and then month…

    I am an IT Project Manager in Salford Quays and work only 500 yards from the MediaCityUK site. As such, I am able to keep abreast of the development with ease and post pictures quite frequently. Here is the link, hope it proves useful.
