  • the building i wanted to see gone has....The New Monkey!!!
  • The Civic Centre
  • The Civic Centre
  • the old bungalow on kirklee bank it is a eyesore not to mention a local youth club
  • Truthfully? I'd not knock any of it down, I'd just build a very big wall around the place & stick machine gun towers every 100 yards.
  • Wearmouth hall
  • stadium of lite
  • Stadium of light
  • the whole place
  • The Orphanage
  • the bridges
  • anywhere skater wankers go
  • donk know
  • the town
  • The whole of Sunderland could really do with going - the place is shit, the people are shit, need I say more?
  • Crowtree skating rink, why is it there?
  • THE F***ing glas centre
  • the civic centre, the bridges, idols, crow tree liesure centre, and the bus station
  • stadium of shite
  • Hendon! Hendon! Hendon! Hendon! ALL of it
  • ST JAMES PARK, THE CIVIC CENTRE
  • st aidans skool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • All of the bridges shopping centre, It stinks of tack!
  • Flat blocks - putting hats on the fuckers doesn't make them more aesthetically appealing
  • Not a building but most houses in Southwick should be flattened ha ha!!!
  • National Glass Centre
  • The museum coz it looks lonely just standing there
  • The stadium of light, all buildings in Hendon, all the schools..
  • The blocks of flats that are EVERYWHERE
  • The old Sunderland Echo building next to Wearmouth Bridge. It's fucking horrible and the land could be put to much better use, being on the edge of the city centre.
  • The Stadium of Shite. Stop making it bigger. Take it down.
  • Civic Centre
  • farigdon hall police station..york castle is more modern
  • Wearmouth Hall really needs to go. its like a 1970s block of flats.
  • The Civic Centre.
  • Park Lane bus station -- sorry -- "interchange": the silly music -doesn't- stop charvers hanging around, in fact, the only thing that's likely to do that is the fact that it's virtually open air, and in Sunderland in the winter, that's not a way to encourage people to use buses. And all of Park Lane, actually, the shops are silly little converted houses that look rubbish. The street ornaments are too tacky to be true, and those new shelter things with the frosted glass -- why? They're not going to keep anyone dry, there aren't any buses to wait for on a pedestrianised street, and they look so incredibly out of place in Park Lane.
  • The Civic Centre
  • The Central Bus Station. Its got bird poo everywhere and smells of wee.
  • Wearmouth Hall, Sunderland University - apparently it's been suggested that it would be cheaper to demolish the building rather than repair it. The guy who designed it apparently committed suicide after it was built, does that not tell you something?
  • Crowtree - this needs to be blown up and quick Jackie Whites Market - Smells like your nannas knickers
  • The Galleries, Washington
  • The stupid statue thing outside the bridges
