Voss Motors being demolished as we speak. Got a few pics yesterday, only on camera phone though. I think it's a shame.....

Voss Motors...just the right-hand side had been demolished when I passed this morning. The upper reflecting windows were still there today.

A couple of great pics Phil

The second one looks like it would make an excellent cover for a book.

Thanks Chaps.
I was there yesterday, and the demolition is still underway.

The demolition work is progressing well (at least moving in the right direction...)

Will be interesting to see the X museum and the three graces (granite this time) go up. Enjoy the excellent views of the other three graces from the Albert Dock now while you still can!

The railway lines near the dock are getting exposed...just look for a couple of workers with dust-brushes (by the area that used to be the entrance to Mann Island Finance).

Yellow sandstone wall and red-brick wall. These are beneath the cobbles at the rear of Mann Island Finance. I don't know what was here prior to the car-park.

[kat2]

interesting find I wonder if anyone knows what the sandstone wall were?
