  • Bull Ring
  • Bullring
  • I still think that the REP is pretty spectacular. The way you see that whole square as you walk up from paradise, over that bridge, it is a really nice city view. Love for Brum!
  • Birmingham palace
  • The Central Mission Hall opposite the law courts. It used to house the Q Club - the best club in Brum, but alas, no more. It's a great looking builidng building - triangular shape, red brick and it really stands out if you see it from the Aston University side.
  • Birmingham womens hospital (as was)in showell green lane
  • St Martins Church, Bull Ring and many other victorian buildings within the city.
  • ALL the old Victorian places including Moseley Art School
  • THE ROTUNDA!! All they have to do is do up the outside, Birmingham wont be Birmingham without it! There is a brilliant plaque in the new bull ring goes something like 'oh rotunda they wanted you square but you are still round still there' sums it up nicely!!!
  • law courts.nice to look at
  • S.t MArtinc church the architecture is beautiful!
  • Selfridges
  • Icc
  • The neo-classical (mock-Greek stylee) Town Hall
  • arena central if it gets built

  • The law courts - they are big and red and quite stunning
  • Rotunda - the closest thing Birmingham has to a world-famous landmark. But it needs doing up a bit.
  • BT Tower- a big phallic reminder to all the ladies.
  • THE ROTUNDA!! IT'S A LANDMARK! AND THE BULL RING. IT ONLY NEEDS CLEANING UP.
  • St Andrews - the mecca of underachieving football but still those Bluenoses remain as loyal as ever
  • The dilapedated warehouses in Digbeth are in dire need of restoration, but cool nonetheless. Can someone do a Broad Street down here please?

  • Tricorn House, near the Five Ways Island and the Swallow Hotel
