De Montfort House, Oxford Street, Leicester
A startling cliff-like edifice of concrete and glass, with jagged skyline and undulating elevations.
Flats, I think part of the De Montfort Housing Association's stable.

The Swan and Rushes, Leicester
After being empty for a year, the pub re-opened in 2018 with a modernised interior, but keeping the older, traditional facade. On its left, new student accommodation. Leicester architecture is a mixture of older, ugly 1960-70s high rise, and uninspiring modern buildings.
