Market Street is a tram stop in Zone 1 of Greater Manchester's Metrolink light rail system. It is located on Market Street, in Manchester city centre, England. It opened on 27 April 1992 as part of Phase 1 of Metrolink's expansion. Originally the stop in Market Street had one platform and handled only northbound trams to Bury Interchange, with High Street tram stop a short distance away handling southbound trams from Bury. When Market Street was pedestrianised, High Street stop was closed, and Market Street was rebuilt as an island platform to handle trams in both directions. The rebuilt stop opened on 10 August 1998. It was rebuilt once again in 2015 with a new canopy. The stop is one of the most used on the Metrolink network.

High Street was a tram stop on Greater Manchester's light rail Metrolink network, located in Manchester city centre, England. It was on the east side of High Street opposite Manchester Arndale, between the present Shudehill tram stop and Market Street tram stop. The stop opened on 27 April 1992. Market Street (which opened the same day, and was just around the corner) and High Street Metrolink stops effectively formed a single station staggered across a road junction, with different stop names for each platform: southbound vehicles (going towards Piccadilly Gardens and St Peter's Square) stopped at the High Street stop, and northbound vehicles (going towards Victoria) stopped at Market Street. High Street, Market Street and Mosley Street tram stops were each originally built with a single-platform construction and one-way operation due to constraints on available space in the road layout.Market Street was modified to handle traffic in both directions when the street was closed to traffic, and the High Street platform was demolished in 1998 after six years' service.

Sachas Hotel is a hotel in Manchester, England. The original building was built and opened as the C&A store in 1928, which later moved to a three-storey shop in the Arndale Centre in 1978. The building was converted into a hotel in 1987. The C&A store was designed by North, Robin & Wilsdon, faced in cream-coloured faience (glazed terracotta) and adopted a simplified classicism with art deco touches, such as chevron decoration at the top of the piers and on the panels beneath the windows. This was an early appearance of art deco on the British high street. The hotel has its main entrance on Tib Street and is part of the Britannia Hotels group. It offers 3 Star accommodation, events spaces, plus the services of Spindles Health & Leisure Club including a heated swimming pool. The leisure club as of 2022 is closed. Like most of the early Britannia Hotels properties, Sachas Hotel was fitted out with opulent décor and originally came with a 4-star rating. Since the 1990s, the hotel has received minimal investment and retains many original features.The hotel has 223 bedrooms and seven meeting rooms, the USA Suite has a capacity of up to 550 people, making it one of the largest hotel function spaces in central Manchester. Currently there are two restaurants on site, Jenny's Restaurant and Overstuffed Pizzeria.

Mosley Street was a tram stop in the City Zone (now Zone 1) of Greater Manchester's Metrolink light rail system which closed on 18 May 2013. It was located on Mosley Street in Manchester city centre and was the last unidirectional stop on the Metrolink, with a single platform serving southbound passengers travelling towards Altrincham Interchange, Eccles Interchange, MediaCityUK and St Werburgh's Road only. Mosley Street tram stop opened on 27 April 1992, as part of Phase 1 of Metrolink's construction. The only remaining example in the City Zone, it was designed with a varied height platform, partly full-height with ramped lower sections. When a service was worked by two coupled T-68 vehicles, the rear vehicle extended mechanical steps to allow access at the low-platform sections - a feature absent in the newer M5000 vehicles.
