:) A fine picture from young Max there.
Are old pics allowed on Picture of the Day?
They must be taken with your own camera....
1986 photo.
The Futurist has remained closed since 1982, despite this "Sold" sign appearing in 1986.
Along with all the other buildings between the Crown and the Vines, it is scheduled for demolition.

Aladdins Palace...that brings back memories!! A quid a go on the driving game 'Hard Drivin' - I spent my misspent 6th form there and then when I got told that computer games wouldn't get me far in life, I've now had my 13th year at Sony! :Colorz_Grey_PDT_16:
Nice pic Phil. It still looked in good nick in your pic. Took this in 2002 and it's starting to look a bit tatty:PDT_Xtremez_12:

Thanks, Dave.
Love your pic.
Now, apart from looking very tatty, it's got 2 big banners on either side, put up by the Council (I think), promoting them as advertising space. :disgust:
Also, the building to the right of the Futurist in your pic looks fine. In my one, they've gone and painted the frames in a nasty blue colour and painted the building beige!:eek:
Didn't that used to be The Hippodrome? Had some great nights in there when I was 17/18 :PDT_Aliboronz_24:

What do you mean their knocking it down.. no way:disgust:
they could use it for something, im fed up losing all the old buildings. i suppose St Georges Hall would make a nice multi car park.
Became the Hippodrome nightclub in the 80s after being the Futurist (probably something else in between too) isn't it a lap dancing place now X in the city I think ?- not that i've been there mind.
X In the City is next door to that building I think.
