Piecemeal planning. Most British large towns and cities are the same.
I guess it is the same th world over now, as every architect seems to dream up something new rather than having to follow a cohesive plan.

We don 't see many photos with the old air terminal to the side of Baskerville House
A feature of the building you're very unlikely to see close up. Viv.

A colourful view of the Civic Centre and Hall of Memory. Plenty of municipal planting around the gardens. I think the road in view is Great Charles Street (pre inner Ring Road redevelopment of that area) and a glimpse of the corner with Easy Row. And of course it’s since been redeveloped again. Viv.
This photo looks almost staged. It’s supposed to be c1960. Some nice vehicles on Broad Street.
And an earlier image celebrating the Elan Valley Water Supply Scheme.

A building that's seen several uses. I recently read that it's being used by Birmingham City University.
