Tender description
The Power Hall is a Manchester institution - a 2,500m² Grade II listed goods shed, housing one of the most significant industrial heritage collections in the world, including Europe's largest collection of 19th and early 20th century steam engines. The new gallery will be an iconic living gallery showcasing the historic working engines that made Manchester the economic powerhouse of the world.
