The big problem that I have with all of these high rise buildings, is that they all look the same. Nothing has any character any more.

I agree to some extent. There is a sameness, particularly in Birmingham, and Manchester, but there is an elegance also. What is vital to tall building design is the height to width ratio, which in both cities is achieved with striking results.The big problem that I have with all of these high rise buildings, is that they all look the same.

So that huge pile of dirt is finally being removed
The HS2 project has been a disaster from the outset in 2009. We still have 10 years of destruction to go before the trains start. The east side of Birmingham, and indeed the whole route north from Euston, has been trashed. A vanity project of epic proportions unfortunately, and never to pay for itself apparently!.BHX's runway looks good from the air, but could do with some fast turn-offs. Hopefully, HS2 will be completed. No one bats an eyelid at the Billions being spent on rail in London, but when it's outside of the capital, those who it doesn't benefit are up in arms.
