Canalside Cube

This is the new iconic building that is part of the regeneration of Birmingham's inner city,and set canalside,in the upmarket Mailbox.

An interesting looking building. Is it offices?

@blueburn11 Thank you again,Rhoiz! @jmj Jennifer,you either love the Cube, or hate it and many hate it! But I have rather a penchant for modern architecture,if it is well designed and striking. Like the Selfridges building,in the Bullring,beside St Martins church it makes a statement for the future.We move on or die! The Cube is made up of flats,shops as well as offices and even a Marco Pierre White restaurant! In the newly restored Gas St Basin,I think its beautiful.

@jmj PS Have a look at my post for October 3rd and tell me what you think.

I wouldn't like to live there but I like the building.

@busylady @natachamurphy Yes, such contrasts round here,which is good,I think.

i have never been in to see it or the mailbox, haven't even seen the new bull ring - dont like city centre its too crowded for me with the ME

[Lesley Barber]

@kmrtn6 Oh,that's so sad,Kylie! Perhaps come with me someday...?

[Kylie Martin]

@moominmomma thanks for the offer - will have to see how my ME pans out over the next few months
