Since SSC has died again I'll put this here. It may be part of the reason that demolition for the V-Building hasn't started yet...

Interesting.
3 Contractors for the Library have also been shortlisted be decided at the end of the year. |
Yeah I saw that somewhere as well.
So when are you coming back sim? |
Unfortunately, Tubeman has a immature vendetta against myself which will make it impossible to do so.
The fact he knows next to nothing about what the forum is set up for he needs his kicks from elsewhere and unfortunately for him and his ego he needs to inflict power to make himself feel better. |
Lots of interesting titbits.
Some old and some new. * 30 storey tower by Kuwaiti investors in Birminghams Digbeth area. * Deutsche Bank are due to announce a major investment and elnlargement in city. * Concept designs have been released by Dutch practice Mecanno for the citys new Library which will be the largest public library in Europe. Lots of glass boxes topped onto one another. * New designs have been released by FOA for Birmingham New Street Station. * Snow Hill towers have been re-phased. Current development is sterile and they will concentrate on Snowhill Two which is a 75m office block to help bring in revenue. * Re-commencement wont start till Easter 2009 at the earliest. * Colmore Row (165m) tower has been put forward for approval although distinct changes will take place including the lowering of light mast. * NEC Arena 7th largest in Europe has struck a new sponsor deal and is now known as the LG arena. * V Tower has been delayed indefinately. * VTP 200 is being re-designed. (Although my sources state any planning wont happen for a while as funding is sparse) * ISIS have delayed two schemes in Birmingham. Including one of the largest in Eastside. * Cube is progressing well although trouble might not be to far away. * All in all ... not good times for major residential developments in the city as is the case for all cities across the UK due to the credit crunch. |
Snippets of Regal Tower - Broad Street
The first images of Regals Mixed Use Tower along Broad Street have been found, it comes on strong indications from the council of a major investment along the golden mile with a multi-billion pound make over of the area.
Schemes include numerous high-rises, although with the current economic climate its difficult to determine what will happen with alot of them. A review of Cumberland House has also been indicated. Anyway. Here are the first renders. They plan to start 2009 with completion before the 2012 Olympics. Its rumoured Regal will announce Hilton as the flagship hotel chain. There will be a 54th floor skybar. http://s244306752.websitehome.co.uk/...ight_image.jpg Quote:
