    I see people in the comments moaning... the top comment is right though, and it ties back to other issues regarding moans about the City Centre. As it stands, Hull doesn't have enough of a retail offering to lure people from out of town, but top retail companies won't want to come to a city with a large portion of closed shops, so as it stands we're in a catch 22. The city centre footprint is too big, and we have absolutely no need for 3 shopping centres, so I see no issue with turning parts into housing. A smaller, more vibrant city centre with more customers actually living in it, rather than bussing out at 5pm every day

    Saw an example of city center living yesterday in my bank. I was sitting and waiting my turn to see a real person to sort some banking stuff, the few staff the had were busy sorting the druggies and drunks who couldn't get any more money out of the hole in the wall. That will be because your account is empty, then someone must have stolen it, I haven't withdrawn anything. Then there were the new arrivals from the Royal Station Hotel trying to open an account but only had a very limited grasp of English.
    Meanwhile all the old folk with real money and pensions and stuff had to wait.

    If we fill the old shop buildings with apartments and they are ‘workers’ maybe they will help hospitality to survive and prosper every night not just the weekend .

    The same reasons I no longer Bank in Hull city centre, and therefore have little reason ( bar football) to visit. I moved my account to another Bank. Final straw was being stood in a queue for over half an hour with only two cashier desks open. Virtually all the available staff were dealing with foreigners, druggies and chancers.
