Development Rumours

[OldDartmouthMark]

The pillars are a feature of the Gothic arch design, and I would say part of the charm of this architecture.

I’ve attended symphonies many times and I have to say the draw is the sound vs any visual spectacle that one might expect in a rock concert or pop tart dance show. Excellent acoustics in such an amazing environment would make one not even notice that they can’t see the kettle drum because a pillar that was hand carved many decades ago is blocking their view.

As far as amenities go, I’m not very familiar with the building, but churches generally have spaces where functions can be held, so with a little imagination, I’m sure a solution could be found.

Not that any of this has a chance of happening. I fully expect to be reading of its demolition within the next year or two.
