A Big Empty Space

And the walls come Tumbling Down!

Steel frame propping up our building

As the demolition of the buildings adjacent to and behind continues, the landscape around us is changing daily. Pound City is now a great big empty space and behind us when you look through the back of our building, the last remains of the Capital Cinema are crumbling to the ground. It is amazing to step outside and walk down Oyster Lane and look right through to Washington Street.

It is hard to believe that this will become giant blocks of glass in the near future!

Our building is being propped up by a big steel structure on the Oyster Lane side and the rear. This structure gives support to our building as everything beyond the party wall comes down.The noise and contant vibrations are a bit annoying but the building team are doing their best to keep it to a minimum!
