Yes it's the new mulit storey. It's right next to Vaux where loads of new developments are going up. They are expanding what has traditionally been seen as the centre

I thought the same, that’s a bit of a trek to the centre but makes sense with the redevelopment planned. I’d be sticking a footbridge to go over the main road near Keel Square like as the lights are rubbish. Especially during rush hour.

Really exciting to see it all taking shape mind.

I think the longer term planning is to find ways to either reduce the traffic through Keel Square, or even put the road underground, to open the whole area up to pedestrians. Any solution will be expensive.

Yes lots going on. The new housing should start soon, on both sides of the river and on the old civic centre site, bringing more people into the city centre to support local shops and nightlife.

It is in the plans but there is still no partner identified, so that part of the plan might take a while to happen.

Trouble at the NGC, could be going the way of TCC award winning eyesore . Built in haste and repented at leisure. Shame as both deserved better.
