I remember the tower blocks in Leeds that were hailed as ‘arcitectural triumphs’ when they were built, but were demolished this year. They looked much better when they were piles of rubble.
The problem with a lot of modern architecture is that it is all built on straight and cubist lines – if you took the set square away from the architect he woulfd be lost – and these type of buildings age so badly.
Modern today and slums tomorrow.

If this is an example of Britains BEST buildings I would hate to see the worst.
No doubt it will be demolished in 30 years time like many other eyesores that were also considered tasteful in the 1970′s.
