My first view of this long awaited project. Like many Cambridge folk I have kept an eye on this development from the moment Robert Sayle closed their doors - how time flies. My first impression is one of great disappointment, this could be anywhere in the UK, Cambridge has surely missed a trick here. But then as Keith notes Image many units are yet to be occupied, perhaps it will develop more character. I shall not be holding my breath.
