    Default What is this building?



    The Blind School used to stand on this site, Hardman Street, but does anyone know what the present day building is used for? Thanks!

    I'd of thought those banners hanging up would have given some indication as to whats happening in there?

    The Philharmonic Hall is over the road, hence the banners, but is the building in shot associated with the hall?

    If you know the number of a particular building? you can then put the number and street name into google and it sometimes locates the buildings present day use?.

    Try it type in 36 Renshaw Street...British Red Cross,however there are flaws ie the building might not be the BRC anymore but at least if we get a building number and street name we can see what it is or was.

    I can type my street and house number and it comes up in google,doesn't tell me who's living there though.

    This actually was the blind school,as recorded on it's wall,but what it's been used for since it was a police station,I'm not sure,though I remember posters in the windows associated with the trade union resource centre,next door, which has now closed
