Well people might be interested in, as sir terry wogan dubbed it, "The Northampton Lighthouse"


At 128 metres the Northampton Express Lift Tower it is the tallest building in our region followed by the Cardinal Telephone Exchange building in Liecester at 84 metres. (According to skyscrapernews.com)

Well Chesterfields part of east mids, but its nearer to sheffield so which are should it be ?

It never going to get into BIG league of 100m+
The crooked spire is probably the tallest it will get. But several areas are to be redeveloped. The former Dema Glass site being the most prominent, due to have the new football stadium and leisure or retail adjacent to it.

The site is now cleared ready.

So ??? is East midlands or Sheffield.

Without wanting to have a battle over Chesvegas, it is surely more closely linked to the Sheffield City Region than anywhere else?

I have many friends in Chesterfield and they ALL work in Sheffield, along with the S postcode, Radio Sheffield being its BBC station, the Sheffield based newspaper that has a circulation in Chezzy, shared local sporting leagues etc.. maybe I'm wrong?
Yeah you know what... I agree... everytime I see the Crooked spire I assume in i'm sheffield

I’ve just returned from a 3 week holiday and was expecting to read about 600 posts on the Leicester thread.

Now I find that we have an East Midland Forum. :banana:

It’s going to take me ages to read through!!

Although, I’ve had a quick look and it seems a bit confusing with all the other towns & Cities threads.

As we're in the skybar, should'nt we also talk about the skyvault:


www.skyvault.org

remember, that sculpture which will go over the M1 motorway and let people know they are in the east midlands

Dont know how to paste images (perhaps someone will help me...) but these images on this page show just what the experience will be like, using lifelike annimation:
