In the middle distance is the Kingsway with the Odeon cinema and Top Rank Suite, behind which can be seen the 1930's old bus station. In the LH middle distance is the arched roof of the covered market and behind that, the Leisure Centre. The low, long brown roof is that of the Quadrant Shopping Centre and behind the gasometers can be seen the old docks before redevelopment as the marina.

Swansea market seafood stall
This is the largest indoor market in Wales and is the best place to buy the local specialities: laverbread (made from seaweed) and cockles which are both gathered on the coast nearby. You can also find early potatoes from Gower and a wide range of meat and fish for sale.

Union Street, Swansea
This scene would be quite recognisable today by the architecture - however almost every shop has changed management since 1988 when this picture was taken. Even the quadrant centre has taken on a new logo.
One interesting observation is the number of television rental shops on one street alone. The entire white goods and electrical rental industry has since shrunk and moved over to internet point of sales rather than the street shop. Rumbelows, Radio Rentals and DER are no longer familiar names on today's streets.
