Next year The Trafford Centre celebrates its 15th Birthday 

I'd like to have a bit of a debate about this one. Apart from the experience of shopping there, what impact has the centre had on the surrounding area? As well as Manchester city centre, do you think town centres like Stretford, Altrincham, Eccles or Urmston have been affected in any way since its opening?

I'm going to hold back on my opinion one this one, but what do others think?

I would be grateful for some opinions on this one....
