Dennis totally agree yet another 60's pile of concrete
Put a collar and tie on a pig and it's still a pig.
I've never took to this building, infact, I've never took to any concrete slab buildings....they are horrible designs.
I think we have had this conversation before Dennis.
I am not a fan of much modern or post modern architecture, Brocol House, Brian House, Hallgate Sorting Office Etc. They don’t even qualify to be termed ‘architecture.
I do though think this building in concrete has some merit as does Preston Bus Station. It might be in the wrong place but if demolished in 50 years time people will be be decrying the council if pulled down.
Cleaned up and repurposed it will be better than another vacant plot of wasteland.
Alongside will be the new entrance to the former Debenham’s Store, internally gutted to form a live entertainment and food court. Now that’s something to talk about!
Of all that’s been demolished in the town and ALL around this is the ugliest ‘monument’ to the sixties that’s ever been created at the top of Millgate. What is happening now to the 3 C’s - Crazy Clown’s Centre?.
My thoughts exactly Dennis !
