Hawley Street flats
Although these appear to be terraced houses, each entrance originally gave access to a stairway hall giving access to two apartments on each floor, respectively with one and two bedrooms. They were built as part of an early slum clearance project under the Housing of the Working Classes Act 1890. Although the scheme started in 1893, the new apartments were not finally ready for occupation until 1908. They still represent an early example of council housing.

Pennine Centre, Tenter Street, Sheffield (2)
A huge office complex consisting of five blocks, the tallest, Griffin House, rising to thirteen storeys. Built 1973-75. The architects were a local firm, Richard Hemingway and Partners.
Midland Bank was an original occupant and its successor, HSBC, is still here.
Its position at the foot of Broad Lane means it is surprisingly unobtrusive in most views of the city.
Fellow Geographer Dave Hitchborne tells me that previously this was the site of the Tenter Street tram depot and later the Townhead Street bus depot.
