Demolish It Now Building in Northampton, Northamptonshire*

Places that need to be levelled

You can tell us more about Northampton.

• just get a wrecking ball and hit it into Big Noise a few times. Try not to hurt A1 taxies too much though they didnt do anything.
• The Super Sausage cafe/truckstop. I'm a lorry driver and have stopped there a couple of times. The food is rank, the showers are filthy and stink and you can't get a nights sleep because the local prozzys are banging on the cab every 5 mins asking if you 'want any buisness'. SHITHOLE! Never again!
• The bus station...have to agree!! The worst thing is the smell of piddle outside in the terminals.
• the barclays building by the grosvenor so ugly
• Morrisons Kettering road, so don`t have to go work there every night ha ha
• The Greyfriars Bus Station
• THE BUS STATION IS A BIG PILE OF OLD FASHIONED, DIRTY, TRAMPY, DISGUSTING, HORRIBLE, POO.....KNOCK IT DOWN...NOW.
• JESUS CENTRE
• Top of the Town nightclub - hideous
• Greyfriars bus station, need i say more?
• The Mounts has a concentration of really shit buildings - the Chronicle and Echo (just ugly), the Police Station, the Mounts surgery, Greyfriars Bus Station, St Michael's Car Park...ugh! Right in the middle of it all is the lovely old art-deco swimming pool, which hopefully will never be modernised.
• BUS STATION!!!
• Northampton Bus Station
• All of them-the bus station, my school it looks like shit. The Grovesnor Centre, it;'s not nice, Weston Favell centre. Chron and Echo building, nearly every bulding. The town has less life and community that Milton Keynes. That is sayibg something.
• Obvious the bus station. IT'S DISGUSTING..... Or you could just demolish the whole town. that would be nice.
• Quality Hotel at Weston Favell - this is one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in! How they can get away with using the word "Quality" is beyond me! Unfortunately my company uses it so I can't escape from it's dreadful service. It's worse than Fawlty Towers! In most of the rooms in the main building, a loud low hum stays on to about 3am. Don't get me wrong, the hotel is based in a lovely old country mansion but they have ruined it! The fish in the Garden pond are dying because they're not getting enough oxygen. They are so understaffed, food orders take an hour and a half sometimes. The Pay TV doesn't work properly, nor do the Playstation games on the TV. The food is dreadful for the price - £5 for a cup of soup! £20 for dinner! Oh, youths and vandals hang around nearby the hotel and use it as a cuthrough to 'skool' - the other night they scratched my car and smashed down a signboard. Abandon all hope, ye who visit Quality Hotel Northampton!
• The bus station, the Grosvenor Centre, most of Abington Street.
• BUS STATION... please put this monstrosity out of its misery NOW
• The Grovesnor centre.
• The whole of the Grosvenor Centre, all of the Peacock place, which is the most pointless development ever. Sol central is bloody awful. But my personal bugbear is sodding B&Q warehouse, because whoever sanctioned it thought nothing for the poor residents of Far Cotton and Delapre who can't get into town, or back home because of all the drones going to worship at the church of DIY. Know what I do now? As it takes 30 minutes to drive into town from Cotton, and then you have to pay for the privilege of parking, I now drive 20 minutes to Milton Keynes, park for free and get a better selection of shops. Bingo.
• BUS STATION!!
• i agre. bus station
• The bus station, the Grosvenor Centre, the Weston Favell centre, all the hideous multi-storey car parks, the tower block at Trinity School, and Sol Central, which is an abysmal attempt at making the bottom end of Gold Street look like Soho. It doesn't work.

• Those big ugly Lego-like tower blocks in Spring Boroughs, St Michaels Car Park, the Greyfriars Bus Station, and Bruce Bunker's shop on Abington Avenue - the bloke is a gobby tosser who has been known to threaten people with a large savage dog on a chain and is *rumoured* to indulge in rampant bumboyism, it'd make me laugh to see his smelly little craphole go up in smoke.

• Time and Envy (ex visage) kill the dance lovers with it
• Kenmuir Avenue
• That one
• Weston Favell Shopping Centre. A hideous slab of grimly functional 1970s architecture with no redeeming features whatsoever! The Greyfriars bus station is also pretty disgusting, as is most of the architecture along Abington Square.
• Everything on the Lings, Spencer, Lumbertubs and Ecton Brook estates, preferably while the scumbag occupants are locked inside.
• BT tower
• Visage or what it has been renamed which i don't know!
