A Manx-born architect is being commemorated for the contribution he made to building design in Manchester.
Andy Robson died suddenly in 2003, and earlier this month a glass memorial was unveiled near his last design, Spinningfields' Left Bank.
Mr Robson was born and raised in Ballasalla, attending King Williams' College before leaving for Liverpool University.
