@ikorodu0807 Neither was I! HATED it, and probably gave me a long-time prejudice against concrete buildings to this day! Have you seen the building that's going to be the new council offices? God, talk about the same bloody mistakes! They've taken a lovely old warehouse building, and tacked "modern" onto it. Do you know where the car park behind the Overgate is? Lindsay Street ish? There.

Might have been only seven years old at the time but can still remember the old overgate.
