Thank you for the updates. Ancoats is much better than before.

Ancoats is Saxon Eln-cotte = Lonely Cottages. Great Ancoats Street apparently has origins has a drovers road so farmers could bring cattle to the Mcr. market.

A lot of the building is due to the catalyst of Far Eastern Money, due to the high occupancy and subsequent high returns in Mcr. Victoria House in East Piccadilly is a case in point. 

Number One Port Street is also an example and underway. 

Greengate Salford not to be outdone, has seen plans this week. There is a fashion for "skinny" buildings where the floor plan is constrained more. The plan is for a 41 storey co-living building like Square Gardens and the two Union buildings in St. John's. It seems to be finished in a terracota coloured appeal and is on a site next to the railway currently used as a surface-car park. 
Near New Islington Metrolink Station there is/was All Souls Church with it's landmark turrets. I do hope it's survived.

There was another church St. Andrew's close to Piccadilly in an area cleared not far from your street with steep incline, Jutland Street? 

Also your Church, St. Mary's, the Hidden Gem. I think, am pretty sure, it was the first Roman Catholic Church built in Britain after the Reformation. 

Much obliged.

Check out the new development going on Islington Green and along Pollard St. Very interesting area. Back Piccadilly is going to be a better area I think.

Great to see Mcr. & Salford vying with each other for development like Italian Renaissance cities.
