One side of the street to the other

I took a few pictures in Sheffield city centre to finish off this roll of Fomapan 100 after coming back from holiday. There is quite a lot of development work taking place, with the Heart of the City complex delivering new, and re-purposed buildings. Some of these are built and occupied, some are not quite complete or are awaiting tenants, and some areas are cleared an awaiting work to begin.

The two photos below show scenes on opposite sides of Pinstone Street. I’m not sure what is planned for the cleared area in the second picture. It’ll probably be more retail / dining / residential, but I think it would be quite nice to leave the space open as small park or square.

Salvation Army citadel

Another cheeky digital picture today – mostly because I’ve been out at the cinema* and don’t have time to write about the pictures I’d originally intended..

This is the somewhat derelict former Salvation Army citadel in Sheffield city centre. There has been some sort of legal wrangling over the use of the building for years now, all while the building slips into further disrepair. This is a shame as it’s a handsome looking building, something that the city should cherish. I hope it can be repurposed to some good use while maintaining the beautiful architecture.

* to see The Substance, which was gruesome fun.
