Hello again
Just been to the site again, no change to the building, the demolition team have been clearing the debris and i think rain stopped play! Or there having a long tea break.
I’ll have another look tommorrow.

Hi Chaps
BAD NEWS
I have just visited the site again and been told facade to go aswell.
I have got loads of pictures and will email anyone who wants them.
I will also upload a couple shortly.
5th april 2.38 pm Salford
at lest they are keeping the facade, this is/was the best bit of the building and has some amazing detailing, can anyone post photos of the demolition? Its so sad that there is so little of old salford left
Hello Gordon
It really is sad, do you have any pictures of it in its former glory?
I can get a photo of it now up for everyone to see.
Regards Andy
Visited Yesterday and what a sad sight it looks, the facade is still intact, though a little chipped at the corner, all the windows have been put through and the rest of the building is gone. I didn’t know until I read the previous post that the facade was to be kept, I hope they look after it.
I have just visited the Ambassador! The auditorium has been demolished, the front and foyer is still intact, i have been in the foyer area and had a look around. The seats left are bingo seats,it felt very eerie, a cold wind was blowing through the remains. It’s just a sad feeling of loss. Apparently they are keeping the facade and building flats behind it. I stood and looked up in awe and amazememnt. I can’t believe they have demolished such a historic landmark. 2nd April 2004 1pm Salford.
Went past last night Sunday 14th about 18:30 – a littel sun was about glistening on the (still intact) tiled facade in the spring twilight, a very sad scene. The righ hand tower has been scaffolded and netted no doubt to protect the adjacent houses. A fence has now been erected around the site and through the fence two bulldozers were visible.
I’m not sure if the facade of the building will be demolished Woody, some scaffolding has been erected on one of the towers but this might be to protect the nearby houses from falling debis.
Hi Mike, any update on the demolition, will the facade go as well?
The demolition has started at the rear of the building. No doubt the site will be cleared in a few weeks.
any news on the demolition? can someone ask the site security what the plans are…
Photos of the demolition? Break in and document the insides of the place!!!
what a tragedy, as usual its greedy developers and a wishy washy council who can be bothered to get involved, this is such a magnificent building, its a pity that the facade cant even be saved, no doubt it will be flattened in a few weeks.
theres so little of old salford left to give the place any character
please can someone take photos of the demolition if possible?
I drove passed on Sunday and was very depressed to see the site had been fenced of and a bulldozer was present. The roller shutter on the front was up revealing the main entrance. Sadly it seems that after much heroic efforts by the Ambassadors Project hte big money has won the day. I’ll check her out agin next Sunday.
I went past the Ambassador yesterday (15/02/04) A temperory fence has been erected around the site and there is a bulldozer in the car park area, There are no signs on the fence e.g “demolition” nor is there any info on the Salford Council Web site. Anyone know anything?
