15+ new trees and a tall building - a nice view while waiting for the 220!

Continued transformation of the City Centre

Not long now until the railings come down, I imagine! The southern city centre island is being transformed! I am a big fan of the new trees, the paving, the lighting and even the walls

The parking has a new nice red/brown brick paving, but you can't see it in the photo above. That's disabled parking bays in the bottom left, for anyone wondering

New sash windows, some colour, new shopfront, I believe the upper floors will be apartments. What a difference! Castle Street deserves so much better. A lot going on there at the moment in terms of new lettings and building sales, let's hope things improve in terms of public realm sooner than later too!

What would you like to see replacing the existing Central Library on Grand Parade? The image above were the plans from the '00s - horrible, in my opinion

Personally, I'd love to see a hotel go in there. It could really add some vibrancy to the large plaza there, similar to The Maldron and The Imperial on the South Mall. Apartments would be nice, but the lack of access to South Main Street and Tuckey Street might the necessary windows impossible
