I made the brackets for those panels and brackets for many other buildings up and down the country, The building on Lionel street behind the uni another one I’ve done with the paneled brickwork staggering outwards
Under the influence of modernism, domestic houses of the 1960s were large, modern and often had flat roofs. They had wide windows and were flooded with light. Houses often came with garages, a large driveway and both rear and front gardens.
13:57 *Waves* there's my apartment block just 4 blocks from the top left corner of the the Cube building. Really great video! Proper fascinating to see everything from that high up, there's google maps 3D view but this drone view is so awesome.
That's so true when you walk through cities and towns Look ul above all the shop there's so many apartments and there are all empty rooms up there 🤯 just not being used
Great video... good to capture the cityscape in a moment in time... the black framed building you worked on is now occupied by Arup... I visited it recently and they claim it's entirely carbon neutral... the octagon is interesting but I despair that new apartments are once again being built straight to rent... this means there are hardly any properties you can buy in the city centre... no balconies either. Regarding the brutal 60s buildings, you must be happy that the campaigners failed to save Smallbrook Queensway!
It looks almost like it was copied from the two octagonal buildings in Australia. Thought Nauru House in Melbourne and MLC building in Sydney are much taller the concrete work is almost identical to both. Sadly, both Nauru House and MLC are not perfect Octagons. The old Ansett house (501 Swanston St), also in Melbourne is a perfect octagon but is only 18 stories tall. It was built in 1975. Brisbane has 6 octagonal buildings but alas all of them have irregular sides and are not perfect, including the 249m Infinity Apartment Tower. London and Manchester skyscraper developments are constantly making the news, so it's nice to see this new development in Birmingham.
@jasontempest4233 thanks for shedding some clarity on this Jason, as I'd hate to come across as misleading in my description, however as I also mention in the video the said buildings in Aus are not perfect octagons, so I think I'm safe on this one. Thanks for sharing mate
Tall buildings are impressive, but I do find them utterly bizarre. Do they ever get filled? I mean we live in a country with a housing crisis and skyrocketing rents and utility bills. We can't look after our sick or the old, but these buildings pop up that are apparently 'residential'. Who resides in such towers?
I love yhis octagon tower, I really like the skylines of city centre & dont mind at all our cities resembling Manhaton or Chicago as long as the people are nice & decent & not vagrants & liars, then cities are beautiful
Birmingham looks really nice . Lots of construction is happening by the looks of it.
Another great video bro 💪
It’s getting much better

build to rent is getting ridiculous in Birmingham
They're built for money-laundering not for people to live in
