It has been touched on in some of the 'back' threads, the people who own this building have let this building get into this state because the council kept refusing planning permission on the grounds that, 'the grand ballroom' be kept as it was. There was no way they could keep it that way and convert it into flats/offices, so the planners must shoulder some of the blame,it's time the shackles were removed and let the development procede, or it will finish up like the Hargreaves Wharehouse at Church.
