it was on reddit? i missed that. im always on there as well. have you got a link to it or was it in the sunderland sub?
Me too. But there was no need to chuck it away. We could have built the foundations and then instead of building the revolting building that now lurks on its site we could have rebuilt that fabulous building.Well, that is the first time that I have heard that one.

No idea, before my time
I just heard when they announced they were renovating it that there was an old pub frontage under the cladding
Logon or register to see this image
This is at the side of the same building in pann Lane. You seen that before?
Would be good if the front was similar and it could be fully restored but I'm guessing the front is in a poor state hence the cladding
Love that me. Seems we have someone in the council with a bit of creativity.
Not my informant marra.Me too. But there was no need to chuck it away. We could have built the foundations and then instead of building the revolting building that now lurks on its site we could have rebuilt that fabulous building.
Your informant is trotting out the pathetic excuses of the era
walked past last week and nothing seemed to be happeningHearing that the pub on the site of the former JD Sports is hoping to open in time for Christmas?
Re-open the "Scotch House"
When I go to the Empire I hear accents and see coaches from elsewhere so people from outside Sunderland have more faith than that lad at work.
No, land was sold to a hotel group but once the TH had been demolished they pulled out. I also heard it was actually too small to cope with all the council activities at that time, hence the Civic (monstrosity) was built to ensure all activities were carried out on the one site.
Not sure, you might be right
Not sure. I guess the TH was big enough originally but I assume in later years it may have been deemed too small with the expansion of the public sector.Too small - I thought part of the Sunderland Art School was based there?
No I think it is i.e. the East Side of the JJB building - Panns Lane? The building backs onto where the M&S lorries sometime park.
I just know I'm going to be the poor cunt walking under that when a tentacle comes loose.
