I quite like the look of the one just to the left of it in that shot, that glass ***** is sporting some impressive girth.

I'm quite eclectic about architecture, unlike my food and music.
I can even admire a spot of brutalism.

Have you been in the f**ker? I presented to them last year and getting stuck in a service lift and between two key pass only doors really put me off my mojo.
I dont mind other architectural styles but people really have to recognise the innate superiority of classicism, given the fibonacci sequence and everything.
It's just better.

The Luftwaffe did us a few favours there ;-)
Much more exciting than the dull monoculture in somewhere like Geneva.

The market has a few good things (overpriced)
But don't get the appeal. Shops selling overpriced tat to tourists. And they were all selling Starbucks and Jack Daniels t-shirts :shrug:
I can understand the nightlife appeal. but in general a big MEH.

the building looks like a giant arse.
Strange they build there. as that land was Central Foundation's 'Green site' dedicated the environment and not for sale for any other purposes.

A man had to make a living J, especially when my career in high street retailing of stationery products came to such an abrupt end.
