    Wow...I need to revisit. The last time I wrnt into the market circa 2000 maybe it was still just rows of tables in the middle for stall holders and permanent stalls at the edges. Great video...thank you

    Good vid. That's my mate Dave on the bric-a-brac barrow. I still would like to know why half of that complex is unused {Mardol Building I think you said?}. I always thought it could have been an entertainment venue or at least something!

      I’ll look in to that (Mardol building). It does seem odd it being unused 🤔

    Great video. Lots of memories. My dad did the topping out ceremony by laying the last brick. He was a town councillor and vice chair of the Markets Committee. Coincidentally I now live in Aberdeen where the architect came from.

    60's modernist and brutalist architecture really didn't stand up to the test of time. Though I wonder if current steel and glass boxes will hold up any better!

    • @thirdratecontent585
      @thirdratecontent585  Год назад +2

      A lot of these steel and glass mechano/Lego buildings won’t even last 30 years imo. In fact in places like Manchester buildings like these of the last 15 years are already being replaced. Quick money for developers from off the peg disposable building projects 🧐

    60s/70s new build architecture, was always a bit misplaced, moreso in towns. Your market, not too bad in comparison to some, serviceable, but talk about mix and match, it was the same all over! Yuck! Well some anyway!! Great vlog, Thanks TRC!

      They always look worse in town/city centres. I agree it’s here it’s not going anywhere and it is what it is (a pretty ugly building)
