The work is set to finish in July 2026.
Councillors in Manchester have given the thumbs up to pump a further £76m into the restoration of the Town Hall, which has gone over budget.
Having opened in 1877, the grade I-listed Town Hall closed in 2018 for the refurbishment which was expected to finish this year, but the project has been delayed and will not be done until July 2026. But the council said more of the building will be revealed from behind its scaffolding in the next few months as some work on the outside of the building finishes.
Albert Square is planned to reopen in stages in 2025, marking the beginning of the end of one of the ‘the largest and most complex heritage projects’ in the country.
