I hope that is not the case. I would like to think that with all this investment into the area, the pub would actually see an increase in customers. Plus, the building is listed so whilst the pub may go, which is a shame, the building will not.

Two derelict hotels hit by fire
More than 90 firefighters have been tackling two blazes in neighbouring Birmingham buildings.

Part of Hagley Road near the city centre has been closed while crews deal with the fires in two empty buildings, formerly used as hotels.

A building surveyor has declared the structures unsafe and crews have been told not to enter the buildings.

West Midlands Fire Service say it is a difficult incident to deal with because of the danger involved.

Firefighters were called to the incident at 1830 BST on Sunday.

Traffic is moving out of Birmingham along the road, which is one of the city's major routes, but drivers travelling into the city are being diverted.

I'd say this piece of new is significant enough to warrant its own thread, this is the first time I can remember a major organistion re-locating from London to any city let alone Brum. Add to that there will lots of speculation as to which building they'll occupy, how much room they'll need etc.

Woodie's mentioned Colmore Plaza as a potential site, Masshouse is just round the corner from the coach station, any more ideas???
