That skyscrapercity thread was started back in 2006. I'm pretty sure that development won't be happening.

There have been more rumours about that area over the years remember one where they were going to open a massive nighclub on the Currys site.

 

To be honest suprises me as its a pretty dire part of town.

Its really annoying all my favourite pubs are gonna be gone in a couple of years, someone needs to open some new rock pubs would do it myself but do not know the first thing about running a pub! Did think about buying Nelson but wasn't sure if it was due to be CPO'D or not so wasn't gonna take the chance.
