  • Smeaton's Tower and The Citadel (never been inside The Citadel but it is an interesting historic building and rather decent to sit by on the bank on East Hoe.
  • The wonky old Southwest Railway Offices building on The Barbican
  • dance academy
  • Pilgrim Halls of Residence
  • How it used to be down in the Barbican
  • if this includes landmarks n stuff then the sundial
  • hmm....it would have to be one of the university buildings, its new and made mostly out of glass....must be a bugger to clean.
  • Crownhill police staition looks like a nazi HQ- very imposing!
  • Royal Albert Bridge - it's old but it's awesome.
  • The Theatre Royal and most of the Barbican.
  • It has to be the new Home Park!!! What an awesome spectacle!!!
  • The Crescent on the Hoe (just like the one in Bath)
  • Crownhill fort is my favorite, the most well preserved inland(albeit only two miles inland)fort in engaland, and so descreet you can drive past it on the busy tavistock road every day and still not realise that it exists-genius!
  • the newly refurbished and completly changed odeon building.
  • the Lido on the Hoe
  • Devonport High for Boys
  • Smeatons tower and war memorial on the how, also the New Palace Theatre on Union St, NOW ACADEMY!
  • the theatre royle has to be the best building built in plymouth as the hall ways in the building are so small and it's so easy to get lost in the building as well as ive learnt on some occasions
  • Devonport Guildhall - The best of the old architecture that survives here. I love Devonport, especially the buildings in Ker Street. Designed by Foulston, they contain a 124 foot column, celebrating the renaming of the town from Dock to Devonport in 1824, and a lovely Egyptian House! Wonderful!
  • SPACE nightclub
  • TRAMP HANG OUT
  • Ummm....probably many of the older, quainter buildings on the Barbican.
  • the church on Charles Crossround about. It was bombed in the war and is still standing, as a great memory.
  • why did they destroy freedom fields?
  • Ever wondered who lives in those tall, white row of sea front buildings on the Hoe. Me too. But they will always be my favourite building.
  • civic centre(fit skaters)
  • The Union Inn pub.
  • The maccy-dees drive-thru
  • union rooms (wetherspoons) bought my BMW from there, and now i get pissed there (locals will now wot i mean)
  • DHSG
  • University of Plymouth Students Union.
  • Smeaton's Tower I used to climb up here when I was little, back in the 1950's.
  • Montpellier school, local hangout.
  • There is one on the Barbican opposite the Quay Club along from the Maritime but I have no idea what it is.
  • civic buildings
  • The Skate park!!
