I came to Huddersfield In 1998 as a student it was a lot better then it had a fantastic food and drink festival in summer outside the railway station but now barely anything happens
Fantastic video,thanks for posting. It used to be a buzzing vibrant part of a wonderful town but sadly the "glory days" are long gone. Kirklees has got to be one of the worst councils anywhere ever. Great somewhat distant memories still in my mind though despite the best efforts of "the inept clowns".
I can’t believe Kirklees are doing this, it’s always been one of the nicer parts of town, it always felt clean, safe and welcoming compared with other parts. I remember being a kid going to see the Radio 1 Roadshow at the Piazza, it was absolutely packed and we were able to watch from the roof because we knew someone who worked there! Hard to imagine it now, Kirklees have killed our once lovely vibrant town. I used to shop in lots of the Piazza shops and they were always busy. Kirklees forced all of the businesses out do they could let it become run down and then waste millions of pounds flattening it into nothing. Aren’t they supposed to be broke?
Worked at lloyds bank in huddersfield in the 70's (now gone). Oh how governments and councils can and have ruined our towns and cities..shame on the lot of them 😮
Sad to see the place go, lots of memories of shopping there with my mum on a Saturday morning back in the 70’s. Thanks for the video 👍
Thanks for visiting. There will be a few updated videos to come as the change moves forward to the final finish

I was born in Huddersfield in 61 and I lived there until Y2K. What an absolute dump its become. Run down, by an inept council 😢
I have done some recent footage but currently exclusive to another site, eventually I will be remaking this with old to new Inc the demolition 😢
