Good stuff (y)

I popped into Birmingham on Sat night to pick Mrs F up from the theatre and was most impressed with the lighting scheme on Bank, I couldn't tell whether it was light red or dark pink but it looked awesome :)

This photo was also taken by Mosleyan on SSC who lives in Holloway Circus Tower. Apparently somebody has an app on there mobile phone and can change the colour of the lighting depending on the mood, not sure how true that is but really cool if true.

My understanding is that it will be a rival to Selfridges which changes colour to Green for St Patricks day, Pink for Birmingham Pride etc etc etc.

A new landmark for the city until bigger towers arrive.

I recently installed some led lighting in my daughters bedroom that she can change with an app. It's incredible to see it being done on that scale :)
 
Phase 2 of Exchange Square is due to go before planners next week and is recommended for approval. The scale around here will be jaw dropping as we will have this 36 storey tower to the left of Phase 1 Exchange Square and to the right the approved 51 storey One Eastside.
