Might be of interest to some on here - looks like the Quay St redevelopment is going ahead.

Quote:
The site of the Coronation Street studios in Manchester has been sold for £26.5m – with developers planning to create a new city centre quarter in their place.

Property developer Allied London and Manchester council have joined forces to acquire the 13.5 acre Granada plot on Quay Street, which will be transformed into a new urban community containing homes, offices, shops and restaurants.

From what I hear, filming for Coronation Street is set to finish at Granada over this next week, with them moving to Trafford in the new year.
