    Nice pics Joe. I like the hotel, not so much the community centre though.

    Not strictly a new building, but a refurbished one.
    I like the Beetham Plaza. It was a 1960's office block now converted into bigger and better offices, also luxury apartments and restaurant.

    That's the way to do it. All we need is the Sandcastle made over.

    The new Amsterdam at Liverpool?

    Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
    becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
    longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
    tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
    canals to view its modern museum describing
    how it once was?

    Well newish compared to some.

    This was the scene a few weeks ago. Location, the mirrored building on the corner of Leeds Street and Old Hall street taken just in case anyone tries to tell you there's a bank of computer operators sitting behind this glass looking out at you but you can't see them
