Here’s what we could have won

3W, the architects for one of the Arcade schemes that didn’t get chosen by the council, have put their designs online. It’s well worth taking a look at them.
What’s striking is that the building 3W proposed, at half the height of the one St Modwen have planned, is clearly more than tall enough to work as a “landmark building” – i.e. you can see it for flipping miles and it towers over its surroundings.
It’s an interesting illustration of what a fairly tall building would look like on the site. Just think what a ludicrously tall building would be like! More proof that the 18-storey plan St Modwen has proposed doesn’t bear thinking about.
