Lancaster, the building is not bad as a classic piece of sixties architecture, the insides need completely gutting and revamping.
Agreed.
The buildings are not the car park area, decor, or (lack of) maintenance. Too many new buildings are chain-owned and similar designs, with no local references or individuality. I know chains want their clients to see something familiar, but identical town/city centres, and MSAs, etc are plain boring.
