Cardiff and Vale College - Dumballs Road

This is what is being built...



state of play earlier this week...

Coming along nicely, looks like all the concrete structure is now complete and the remaining metal framework will fly up.

I think this is going to be a stunner, and it's progressing nicely.

and from different angles today..

Looks like a car park on acid in some of those pics

today...

I see from the photos on here and on your Flickr site, Paul, that they are currently replacing the street lighting in front of this building. Isn't that typical short-sightedness from CCC...would it hurt to have thought a bit more about the appearance of the surrounding area?

I assume the run down buildings opposite are part of the Dumballs Road masterplan?

There's some really interesting angles on this building. This could possibly be on a par with the RWCMD I think.

and Atrium, the education sector does have some very interesting and charming looking buildings. RWCMD is a beaut, NQAT


edit: paul, what are your flickr details, they were alluded to earlier.

The shape is interesting but all will depend on the quality of the materials. The rear doesn't look half as good as the front either.
