Noticed last night, another piece of the old lady has gone. The last section of the North Banks rear wall and gate has been knocked down.
I would like to know why?  |  |

Council land so probably its easier to knock down/remove than to ensure they don't fall on some one, ( As was the case of Slip Bridge ). | |

Extraodinary it has not been fully redeveloped years ago with that prime city centre location. |  |

I think there is some caveat that tghe land has to be used for recreational/community use and has to have "open space"
I always suspected the council would have built a new leisure centre there and freed up the exisitng site of LC2 for development especially when the leisure centre was first closed down | |

It would be boarded up by now. |  |

Swansea for for all the years I can remember destroyed anything of any interest in the city and certainly anything of architectural interest .
Shortsightedness and party squabbling together with corruption has killed the place
We talking people who ripped up the Mumbles Railway,destroyed the Plaza and allow the Albert Hall to simply rot and turn Brynmill into a student ghetto.
It is urban rape of a fair town. | |

Shame they should kept that and the gates.
It's where we used climb over when we were kids | | | |

They should have listed something as a momento.
They have listed a lot worse. |  | | |

I think the current mob deserve a chance, lets see what the finished job looks like.
Wasn't it the Nazi's who started the destruction of Swansea, our biggest problem was piecemeal thinking when we rebuilt. Some places did much better, Swansea had no vision, no joined up thinking and that has been true right up until this current council.
Jury is still out on them but I hope they get this redevelopment right. | |
