For a similar view taken 10 years earlier see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/494538 . The main change here has been redevelopment along the far bank of the River Usk. The Grade II Listed former Newport Art College, by the bridge on the left, has been renovated and now contains 66 one and two bedroom apartments that were completed in 2012. There is now a riverside walkway and housing, completed in 2017, along all of the east bank of the River Usk in this view and beyond.
