Bit of a rush job as just had half an hour spare at lunchtime. I mainly wanted to get Argos before it was fully demolished but grabbed this whilst in the air.

Didn’t realise Argos was being knocked down. What is going to be built in its place?

As with most construction the things that are seen by the public take the least time to install…
It can only be named the “gannen ower?” Surely
The Staithes or The Lambton Family. If the latter then aye.

The draw bridge
It’ll be King Charles III bridge
He’s due a visit to Sunderland
It’ll be on the anniversary of the riots last year just so the press can temper any good news with some footage of stupid people

Keep the same theme as the River.
Brycg bridge = bridge bridge
River Wear = River River
Brycg bridge = bridge bridge
River Wear = River River
the "No You Can't Use That Sand In This Even if It Does Comply With The Spec That I Wrote" bridge

you can a real sense of the scale of thing seeing the folk working around on it, one in the eye for the too-narrow-brigade
TBH I usually try and film it when nobody is working so I'm not a distraction but it was interesting seeing them on there yesterday.
And the M and S old building to come down next. Maybe next year for this one.

If you'd like to back the idea of the New Wear Bridge being named after the founder of Sunderland AFC James Allan then the man to contact is

A letter would be appropriate.
The decision will, in similar fashion to the Spire Bridge, go before a panel for a decision.
Clearly if there is a lot of backing for James Allan then it'd be difficult to see how it would not be named after him.

I'd be all for this if (a monumental if) he takes us up this season, then keeps us up next season and wins a cup. Otherwise in a few years he could be just remembered as another name on a long long list of manager names to never achieve anything here

Don't get it. Emailing a councilor about the name of a bridge?
A public vote is fair play
