I've been wracking my brains trying to remember which other building looks like this one;

Cowan Terrace https://tracking code removed/maps/jverXJVZjdv

Okay, the cladding will be different when complete.

Edit. Bollocks. It's the uni building behind the all day car park near Park Lane interchange.

So it will be dead after 5pm in a fabulous position next to the river. Have you seen Newcastle quayside?

Have you seen Newcastle's city centre workforce? There's thousands of people working there, those are the people that eat and drink after work down the Quayside.

Add to that 2 universities which between them have 3 times as many students as sunderland. Many of them well off privately educated

Can't link to it but I am sure it is as Iconic as "buildings near all day car parks" can get

The biggest employer in Sunderland is in the centre and the place is still dead. It needs an attraction, not offices.

A 20 year project? To complete the vaux site?Fuck me, the entire City of Dubai was built up from a dusty sand bowl in less time than that.

Unbelievable.


That would be the skyscraper on holmside....another cardboard model gathering dust in the Civic.






Wrong.

The people of Sunderland don't moan enough is entirely the problem. They just collectively bend over, spread their cheeks and let the Council shaft them where the sun don't shine.

But instead of crying rape, they just vote the bastards back in for seconds.

Wrong. The people of Sunderland live in this cycle

Moan stuff never gets built
Moan when stuff gets built
Dont use the new things that get opened meaning they close
Moan that we cannot keep things open

The University

The University

You saying the university employs more people than Nissan?

Apparently he's but I'm only going on a previous discussion, that includes students I suspect.

Foreigners. And feminists.

Different elevation, the photo is from behind inthing, west looking east, the picture is east looking west. It looks a bit lost at the minute but it’s the first of the development, when it’s complete and other buildings are around it is the time to judge it, at the minute it’s s building site.

Students aren’t employed by the university you know.

4000 teachers?

But the go there and give footfall. I think the Echo once quoted that the University was the biggest employer

Students aren't on the payroll

 

[Travis Bickle]

Imagine if Nissan decided to move the design team up here from London. Cheaper premises closer to the factory. They’d save fortunes.

Yes but 13,000 go to the city centre is the point.

 

[Travis Bickle]

Don’t Nissan employ 7000 now? I doubt there’s that many workers currently in the city centre.

Yes but 13,000 go to the city centre is the point.

But that’s not what you said, you said the biggest employer in Sunderland is in the city centre.

 

[steve30000]

But they're not the biggest employer, are they?

 

[darius]

No. Wrong phrase but they have in excess of 13,000 people attend every week. More than any other organisation in Sunderland. And it's in the city centre.

Well it’s not every week is it, and St. Peter’s isn’t in the city centre
