....wait till you see the photos that'll be on the tower block thread later - very special, Butterfield will be doing gymnastics again when he sees them

It's good to be back but I need a quick break from resizing, uploading and posting

Your efforts with the photos across the threads are appreciated Smiley. Thanks

Nice pics smysticed, anyway this is going to sound really stupid but where is this being built I have not been folowing this project so im interested in its location.

smysticed · August 30th, 2007, 08:52 PM

Well, as the thread suggests, it's on Church Street, which is a road that come off Colmore Row towards the Jewelry Quarter, near St Philip's Cathedral. It should be marked on the excellent map in the Birmingham Development List thread

ILLOGIKAL · August 30th, 2007, 08:55 PM

Thanx for the pics. This one is really flying up now, won't be long till it starts poking its head above the roofline!

Erebus555 · August 30th, 2007, 09:01 PM

Thanks! This is getting exciting!

ILLOGIKAL · August 30th, 2007, 09:37 PM

Agreed Erebus. Things seem to be really picking up pace in Brum at the mo. Its just seems lately that theres a different project starting construction every week.... and they say theres nothing going on in Brum!!

With more to follow over the coming weeks and months!!! EXCITING!!!!!

***woodhousen*** · August 30th, 2007, 10:23 PM

this one is actually going up quite fast, i admit to being quite shocked!

El Paulo · August 30th, 2007, 11:12 PM

This is my next most anticipated project after Snow Hill - I think it looks quite classy.

smysticed · August 30th, 2007, 11:18 PM

Yeah, and it should make a noticeable impact on the skyline from some vantage points.

Erebus555 · August 31st, 2007, 11:44 AM

I agree with Woody. Considering how slow it was at the beginning, it shot up in the blink of an eye. When is it expected to be completed?

Brummyboy92 · August 31st, 2007, 07:08 PM

Theres so much going on in Birmingham at the mo oh and smysticed I do not know that area of the city centre very well, thats wwhy I asked.

Engels · August 31st, 2007, 07:22 PM

Here's a map i knocked up that should help Bb92

I've marked Peat House, this shows the previous building in the white covers under going demolision last year

***woodhousen*** · September 2nd, 2007, 02:43 PM

looking at that pic, it does show there is some sh*t in that area!
