Manchester is, like its real-life counterpart circa the 1950s and 1960s, a heavily indsutrialised city with canals, although its design is less inherent to the real-life city than London. Because it reuses textures from the London map, the game's depiction of Manchester's landmarks are also less similar to those in real life in comparison to those in the London map.

The city's main feature is its canal network, which includes one river to the southwest, a dry canal that runs from the river to the eastern edge of the map, and a Y-shaped waterway that runs from north to south, complete with adjoining dockyards, warehouse and cargo holding areas. These characteristics mimic Manchester's [[wp:Manchester Ship Canal|shipping canals]] and [[wp:Manchester Docks|docklands]]; the southwestern river may also refer to the [[wp:River Irwell|River Irwell]].
