Skyscrapers are being erected and large development schemes constructed across the city.
Among those due to be completed in the coming months is a purpose built student accommodation that will be the biggest of its kind in the world once finished.
Another major development due to be completed is Aire Park, which will create a mixed-use community with 1,400 new homes, Grade A office spaces, retail and the UK’s largest new city centre park.
