Remarkably, none of the buildings visible in this view are being used for their original purposes. The low wavy-roofed building was part of the wholesale fruit and veg market that moved from the area some time ago. These are now retail and restaurant units (this is the back of them!) The multistorey building behind is The Exchange, once indeed a telephone exchange, but now completely rebuilt as student flats. Next beyond is the old Brook Street School, now the headquarters of the Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, whilst right at the back is the Victoria Leisure Centre, formerly public baths but now housing other sports activities.
