indeed they have, here is also a glimpse of the green glass too

Jubilee House seems to have some new glass as the old manky one has gone

paulmat · July 6th, 2006, 06:24 PM

Hmm. Could do with cleaning the bricks on that one though.

Jaguar Estates are delighted to announce that a deal has been secured with HLW – the expanding Sheffield based legal practice.

The project will consist of refurbishing the 25,000 Square feet landmark former Barclays Headquarters, situated on Commercial Street in Sheffield city centre. The building will become a prestigious new Headquarters for the legal firm.

Knight Frank have acted for HLW in the freehold purchase. Atlas Refurbishment (Northern) Ltd will complete the facelift and re-fit on behalf of Jaguar Estates with completion scheduled for October 2006.

The former Dixons building on Fargate soon to be a River Island flagship store seems to be speeding away behind the scenes!

rennovations on the cathedral

jozblade · July 21st, 2006, 10:32 AM

What they doing at Cathedral, sand blasting it?

Unisol · July 21st, 2006, 10:44 AM

D'ya know - our city centre is gonna be so f'king cool in 1-2 years time, even without the NRQ.

I'm sure we all agree that Manchester/Leeds are considerably better than Sheffield for shopping, but i personally believe we may one day have the edge.

Things seem to be getting done with a lot more thought and originality in recent times.

jozblade · July 21st, 2006, 11:21 AM

I agree with you too Unisol. It will be an awesome place. Places like Leeds and Liverpool best watch out

Dont think we can catch up with Manc though..

Manc' has some very nice shops, but i wouldn't say it's anywhere near as attractive as Sheffield (sorry any Manc' readers)

Once we get Harvey Nichs in and hopefully some other quality stores such as Flannels etc we'll be up there with the best.

paulmat · July 21st, 2006, 02:20 PM

It's good to see some more large retailers coming into the centre (small unique ones would be good too). Once River Island & H&M have opened, Fargate should be quite a decent shopping street.

I'm not sure, but I guess this is the right place for this. SCC have won a bit for 86 mill. to replace or upgrade every street light in Sheffield.

But the dark pollution on the masonary prevents you from seeing the detail.

Has anyone been past this building recently? I'm sure last time I went past there was a large rendered image over the scaffolding, except rather than having a picture of the completed building it showed a picture of the current building covered in scaffolding...

That has got to be the work of an evil genius.

Shouldn't the cathedral renovation be 'god news'?
