Or is this another 'Art Exhibit' for COC?

[AK1]

Believe it or not, yes! It was done a few years ago with the west derby road subway in Tue Brook.

[quincyg]

good grief, whatever next. I saw it yesterday and thought it was just to stop the subway being used.
should be interesting to see where it ends up if the gale force winds hit!

What the hell for, it's an eyesore, and needs pulling down soon.

I agree,it has always looked a bit scruffy around there with them tatty shops.

[lindylou]

It's an eyesore. Demolition can't come soon enough for me.

[PhilipG]

The original decision to demolish it was to replace it with a taller building.
Now that isn't going to happen I agree with this quote:

"Now that they are not going to proceed with a new, taller tower, surely it makes most sense to retain the current Concourse House, re-clad it and maybe add some extra storeys."

As the article said, it could be made to look new.
