When I said the avenues I meant the aves with the most incomprehensible numbering system in the country.I lived up Orchard park for over twenty years and went to school in the Danes and onto Sir Leo Schultz but could never work out how to find my way around the Aves .
Dreadful place to get your head round when Taxi driving

I always though they had used a bingo machine to allocate numbers to streets, sorry, avenues. Not far from them myself too, and still no idea how to find my way round there.
 
A man fell through the damaged floor of a derelict building in Hull and sustained multiple injuries.
Emergency services were called to a derelict building on St Andrews' Quay, off Clive Sullivan Way at around 11.40pm on Saturday, January 21 at 11.39pm. The man had fallen from the first floor to the ground through damaged flooring, Humberside Police said.
I think this is the old Sea Fish Authorities building ,I walked around that way the other day with my dog .It was completely open to anyone wanting to enter with gaping holes through the floors and roof .It really needs to be demolished someone will get killed in that bloody death trap.It must belong to someone,who needs to get it sorted.

Not sure if I had said this on here before, but the man I’ve worked for over 30 years, who most will have heard of, Francis Daly, he of The Waterfront, wanted to buy the Lord Line building and turn it into a hotel, the council blocked it on the grounds that it is a unique building of Hulls fishing industry.
Francis has developed no end of buildings in Hull, the old Pier booking office for one, and his idea was the whole area could have been turned into a place to live, right on the river.
What happened it got sold to Manor Properties who buy land cheap, sit on it for 20 years and do nothing and re sell it for huge profit, Hull could have been so like Liverpool, but for our backwards thinking council.

not many cities have a marina and a huge body of water by the citys edge.
