A wreath and a single white rose are fixed to fencing beside a hand-drawn placard bemoaning the loss of a part-demolished building on the corner of Thomas Street and John Street , which criticises Manchester City Council leader Sir Richard Leese . The building is reported to have become dangerous following heavy rains after years of neglect . Campaigners say that the architectural heritage of the Northern Quarter of Manchester City Centre is under threat from developers and Manchester City Council planning policy .
