Demolish It Now Building
- The Whitehouse
- Big mosque on Evington road - eyesore
- The whole of Charles St including the cop shop
- the boardroom skate park because they stopped letting bikes in!!!!
- None, this is home.
- Not so much a building, but the following estates could benefit from a nuclear war-head paying a visit - preferably WITH the residents in them at the time. New Parks, Braunstone, Eyres Monsell, Beaumont Leys, Stocking Farm, Rushey Mead, Northfields.
- The former DSS building next to Charles Street Jobcentre. It's made of concrete which has blackened. Just a slab, but not as attractive as the black slab in '2001 A Space Odyssey'.
- creation and zanzibar please
- The Holiday Inn
- My skool? No...the haymarket.Features crapesque shops such as top girl.aargh save me!
- THE WELFORD ROAD COUNCIL BUILDING
- Holiday Inn
- The old ABC cinema .. if they arnt going to re-open it then it should be demolished as it has pidgeon poo all over it
- Im not sure actually. Id say somewhere that is really rundown and ugly, but off the top of my head i cant think of one.
- Those Council Offices next to new walk.
- the banana building (council offices i think). and also the gargantuan mass of the holiday inn, somewhere no one would dream of having a holiday inn.
- I wish the magazine hadn't been.
"the witch's hat"
- There are amny ugly buildings in leicester, particularly the haymarket. However I have learned that the council intend to refurbish the whole area and turn it into a 'cultural quarter' - cool
- maplin electronics i work there and its crap
- All the job agencies in the city centre. I was unemployed once and all I could get was agency work, working 12 hours a day 6 days a week in a sweatshop (or Pork Pie Factory) in Thurmaston for £2.75 an hour. Degrading and humiliating! I now live in Middlesbrough- even though this is a "depressed" area the wages are far better and there are (believe it or not) more jobs available! Leicester must be the low pay capital of Britain!
- marks and spencer
- Ranars house
- errrm every single one naaah it would have to be Zanzibar
- Filbert Street!thank god they are demolishing it
- The haymarket - you can dress it up on the inside but basically you can see from the outside it's a 1960's piece of crap.
- St. Margrets bus station - its an overgrown f**king greenhouse, really not the impression we want to give people arriving in leicester.
- the old corahs building,leave it in the past
- That BT building near the station. Grotesque.
- that big one by the clock tower argos is in it, it looks really horrible
- Andy:That big one by the clock tower argos is in it, it looks really horrible
- Demontford uni and teh fan club yuk
- the shires
- haymarket shopping centre
- God, most of Granby St. All the 50's-70's stuff anyway. And whose idea was Jewry Wall museum?
- Call it Life, Call it Palais, call it Zoots or Ritzy's ( or go back a hundred years and call it Palais again) - it's still a shit tip - just lose it!
- Silver Arcade
- Clocktower
- That tacky looking "tribute to Leicester's sporting achievement"
- The Leicester Grammer
- Most of the high street could do with a shake-up.
- underpass and overpasses
- krystals/kudos
- The "St James Hotel": an oval shaped building consisting of two hotel floors on top of a multi-storey car park. As to my knowledge, the most hideous building in Britain. Maybe it deserves to be listed just for this reason.
- The Thames tower and the council buildings on Welford road. Biggest pile of pants when you talk about design.
- The whole Haymarket shopping centre
- Fosse Park (large retail park)
- Fletcher building, DMU City campus
