This building is something of an eyesore and has been derelict for some time. As is usual when a building lies abandoned in an otherwise prosperous area, there is a story of planning wrangles leading to an impasse. In this case a redevelopment proposal for an 11-storey apartment block was turned down by the planning authority and the developers are working on alternative designs that local residents will hopefully accept as more sympathetic to the area.
