Manchester Arndale (one of a number of shopping centres in the UK by the same developers, also known simply as the Arndale Centre or the Arndale) is a large shopping centre in Manchester, England. It was constructed in phases between 1972 and 1979, at a cost of £100 million. Manchester Arndale is the largest of the chain of Arndale Centres built across the UK in the 1960s and 1970s. It was redeveloped after the 1996 Manchester bombing. The centre has a retail floorspace of just under 1, 400, 000 sq ft (130, 000 m2) (not including Selfridges and Marks and Spencer department stores to which it is connected via a link bridge), making it Europe's third largest city-centre shopping mall. It is one of the largest shopping centres in the UK, with 41 million visitors annually, ahead of the Trafford Centre, which attracts 35 million By the late 1990s, the Centre was no longer owned by the Arndale Property Trust. A rebranding was proposed but abandoned. Today the Centre is jointly owned by M&G Real Estate and intu. With the large-scale redevelopment of the centre since the 1996 bombing, it has a retail floorspace of 1, 300, 000 sq ft (120, 000 m2), making it Europe's largest city-centre shopping mall, a record it has held continuously since construction apart from a brief spell during the northern redevelopment when the title was held by the Birmingham Bullring. The 96 metre tall Arndale Tower, which contains commercial office space, is currently Manchester's fifth tallest building. Like many large shopping malls, Manchester Arndale has a food court. The Food-Chain, opened as Voyagers in 1991, is an 800-seat food court situated on the second floor
