Some "before and after" shots of the Hyatt Hotel development on Broad Street.
The next 3 pictures are "View 5" (Views 1 to 4 are above)
The picture below was taken in November 1986, showing the site of the planned Hyatt Hotel. Unfortunately I dont have any pictures of what was there BEFORE it was knocked down. The activity on the site makes me think it had just been cleared.
This view is taken on the "convention centre" side of Broad Street, facing what WILL become the Hyatt Hotel.
I remember the tramp shuffling in front of the picture when I took it. I thought it was rather symbolic, this massive multi million pound project going on in the area, and this tramp just shuffling past. I wonder what he is doing now, probably just designed the new Birmingham Library
