I'm assuming that the Acorn Health Centre is that block which seems to have been dumped at the bottom of Lonsdale Street? £12m?...has it got marble and alabaster fittings and gold plated taps in the bogs?

Yes, it would've made more sense to use the buildings at Church. The warehouse is a listing building anyway and an important part of our industrial heritage, so it would've been great to see it being put to good use...still, since when did sense come into the decisions made by officialdom?
