    That's not on the Concourse house site though ? It looks like Bolton st on the old Ribble bus depot. Is the Lime street frontage just being paved when those shops have gone?

    Correct. That isn't concourse house. The area outside Lime street will be paved on different levels with seating and lighting. Have a look at earlier threads.

    That's the site of the Ribble Bus Station.
    For the ex-Pats, the 2 other blocks are already built.
    (And the Electric generating station [or whatever it is] has been air-brushed out!).

    Are we still getting a tall glass tower on the Concourse House site?
    I always thought 2 so close together would be rather messy.

    The tower is still going up as far as I know. That proposal above certainly fits in well with the surrounding buildings, like the missing jigsaw piece.

    Question

    Why have those advertising covers been taken off already? I wonder if it is going to be demolished sooner than expected? Does anyone know?

    They were taken down because they were deeemed unsafe when we had the high winds a few weeks back

    Default St Georges Hall Lion

    Was wandering around St Georges Hall exterior a week or so ago and noticed that there was a big circle missing from one of the lions backs...
    i wonder why?

    Mange?

    Perhaps it was damaged by being caged for the Biennial?

    hehe
    i think the 'hole' looks quite old and eroded. But it is a perfect circle. It hasn't been done by accident

    Lime street needs a strategy. I notice there is still no action on the tatty shops in front of the station. For god's sake get on with it.

    Those lions need cleaning like St Georges Hall. They've been like that for years. Wellingtons column could do with cleaning too.

    They could do with tearing down the old TGWU building. In fact the area adjacent to Lime Street, London Road lets it down badly.
