Directions from Manchester Piccadilly Station

Walking

It is about a 10-minute walk. Leave Piccadilly via the main entrance and walk down the station approach and continue in the same direction towards Piccadilly Gardens. Turn towards your left and cross over the junction onto Portland Street. Continue down Portland Street past the Portland Hotel, crossing Aytoun Street. Trams are street running here, so please be aware of their presence when crossing Aytoun Street. Continue down Portland Street until the first set of pedestrian crossing lights. Turn towards your right and cross over Portland Street onto New York Street. No 5 is the red brick square building with a short flight of steps, approximately 100 yards from Portland Street, on the left hand side of the road.

Metrolink Tram

The Metrolink Tram station is sign posted in the station. Tickets can be purchased from the machines on the platform. You can get on any tram as they all stop at Piccadilly Gardens. On alighting from the tram, you will see the Bus Interchange to your left. Cross the road, and walk through the glass entrance to City Tower to the far side. 5 New York Street is directly opposite where you will exit from City Tower. Just cross the road and enter the red brick and cream building.
