The Bridgewater Hall, Barbirolli Square, Manchester, 01/12/1994. An elevated view looking down towards the metal framework of the inner roof structure of the Bridgewater Hall during its construction. The Bridgewater Hall was designed as the home of the Hallé Orchestra. Work on the site began in September 1993. The building was topped out in March 1995 and it was opened in September 1996. A double roof structure was one of the methods utilised to protect the auditorium from external noise. The building was also mounted on 270 GERB vibration isolation bearings to isolate the auditorium from the noise of traffic and trams, the services were housed in a separate plant tower, and the auditorium was surrounded by other accommodation.
