Wythenshawe Town Centre Car Park

Multi Storey Car Park Rowlandsway Manchester M22 5RG

I’ve lost count of the countless times I have visited countless car parks.

I do have a fondness for ramps – particularly helical ramps, one of my most memorable early modernist encounters, was with Lubetkin’s penguin pool.

The cast concrete taking on a truly sculptural dimension.

There is also the Proustian recollection of a collection of geometry lessons and Helix instruments.

It has all left a lasting impression and I have subsequently taken every opportunity to waddle penguin like up and down several concrete car park ramps.

Here’s the most recent.

  1. I too love a spiral ramp!

    Manchester Arndale Car Park is the only one I know well although you have to be on a high enough level to be able to use it.
