That's a great suggestion. A good mixture of bars & eateries catering for ALL ages would be brilliant along Fargate. We could even think about a covering of sorts to deal with the weather.

People wanting to live & experience life within a vibrant city centre environment but not wanting the other half a million of us partying outside their flats to the early hours of the morning while they try & get some sleep. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is already a surplus of office space in the city, whereas - we are always told - there is a lack of housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, a lot of people, apparently, would like to live nearer their place of work/entertainment, and it makes sense to facilitate this, rather than covering our green spaces with concrete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
