Salford is a city and metropolitan borough within Greater Manchester metropolitan county. Once a town at the heart of the Industrial Revolution, it was given city status in 1926. With the onset of deindustrialization, the city began a decline in 20th century, but began regeneration in the 1990's, particularly the Salford Quays at the head of the Manchester Ship Canal, and Blackfriars on the banks of the River Irwell opposite Manchester City Center.
