A 52 storey residential in the heart of Birmingham. Received planning permission to be built by Developers Dandara on the site of the old TV centre.
Helping to create a new skyline to define Birmingham's renaissance as a 21 centaury city, the tower will create a grand new public space open to all. Culminating in a public top floor observatory bar offering vistas across the city.

  • I'm sorry but if the trend set by not only Birmingham but other cities across the world in 30 years it will be run down and up for demolition.

  • Birmingham seems to have 3 or 4 skyscrapers planned i heard about. Are any of them actually getting the go ahead?

  • The thing is awfully abstract, surely a more traditionally embellished building would grace this woderfull city *cough concrete jungle full of soulles and degrading high rises* far better

  • now, this add, look at the cars, they look ok, something is missing, there seems to be no rag heads, where are the rag heads, i miss the rag heads.

  • birmingham rules.wolverhampton hasent got the population to hace a skyscraper, never mind one as big as that so get your facts straight thank you

  • The words "Birmingham renaissance" and Cafe culture" make me want to shoot myself!

  • I'll miss the old ATV/Central house. I can understand them demolishing the actual studio building, but why did they tear down the pointy-roofed canteen building? It was as deserving of listing as the Alpha Tower was. In fact, if it had been incorporated into the new development, it would have gave it more architectural continuity with the Alpha Tower, since they were interchangable. It was the only building of it's style in the world. Greed before grace... Typical land developers, shame on them!

  • Nope. And if you was whats the name of it?

  • I Live In Wolverhampton And where having a new skyscraper taller than the V tower

  • What a depressing narrator.... he's describing how wonderful and amazing this tower will be, and what it can do for the city and the people of Birmingham, all in a voice so drab and uninspiring.... A great visual video spoiled!
