Curzon Street Station
Everyone,
Thinking a bit bigger, they are about to redevelop the monstrosity which is now New Street why dont we all put pressure on the city and the developers to incorporate this wonderful building into the new development of New Street IE move the whole building! The civil engineers have managed to do it at Portmerion and locally at the Black Country Museum, all it needs is us the 'Great Birmingham Public' to want and yes, insist that it happens.
Naturally they will say it is impossible, it's too expensive, it's not practical all the arguments they used when they wanted to develop New Street in the sixties and Snow Hill in the seventies when people wanted some maintenance done on the existing train sheds.
We got what we deserved for not persevering.
If you go to Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, [and more recently, and high profile] St Pancras, for instance it is clear that these strucures can be preserved for our future generations. It is down to us, the people on forums like this, who care, to get the ball rolling.
Bill.
