Eh?
Did you miss Keel Square with the fountains and ships wheel sculpture? Did you miss the improved paving and street furniture in High Street West? Did you miss the ongoing renovations around the old fire station? Did you miss the new building currently under construction on the Vaux site? Did you actually go to Sunderland?
Big ticket projects aside, the OP is right
I'm Sunderland born and bred but the state of the town is indefensible. Walk down Blandford street. Walk up from Joseph's to the Borough ...... walk along past Joplings. Etc
