Leeds school board building is remarkably similar to the Municipal Annex on Dale Street Liverpool which was also an education board building. The building is currently being turned into a hotel.

They're doing something similar with Old School Board in Leeds. it was part of the Leeds Met estate but it's now been/ being converted to either high quality offices or some kind of hotel. haven't seen any news on it in a while to be honest. gorgeous building though...
my favourite building out of that set is probably the old post office building in the last shot. seems a little bit too grand when compared to today's post offices!

Nice! Big city urban feel, street level looks gash though - could be another Old Hall Street in Libpool http://goo.gl/maps/UfVsA with a bit of TLC, although that too is miles off being great at street level.

Even so Yoshef it still looks like a great place. As for the Smallbrooke Queensway, street levels not to bad actually, there are stores along the whole street, however you can predominatly see City Centre Tower which is the only section along the street with no ground floor retail.

Even St Helens is better than Wigan.
