EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1979, capturing a significant moment in Sheffield's architectural history. The image showcases the construction of Sheffields Manpower Services Commission building, later known as Moorfoot. Standing tall against the skyline, this impressive structure symbolizes progress and growth within the city. The photograph offers a glimpse into the meticulous process of erecting such an iconic edifice. Towering cranes dominate the scene, their steel arms reaching towards the heavens with unwavering determination. These mechanical giants serve as a testament to human ingenuity and sheer manpower required to bring this vision to life. Located on St Marys Gate, this building would soon become home to Sheffield Manpower Services Commission offices - a hub for administrative excellence that played a vital role in shaping Yorkshire's workforce landscape during that era. As we admire this historical snapshot from Sheffield City Archives, it is impossible not to marvel at how far our urban landscapes have evolved over time. This image serves as a reminder of both our past achievements and our continuous pursuit of progress
