No vision of beauty

SORRY, but I must disagree with Mr/Mrs Davidson's letter (July 1) about the Cellular Operations building and landscaping.

An interesting building? Yes, from one side. But it invades what most people would consider a public open space.

But from the other side? No! It is a black monstrosity.

When are they going to add the external cladding?

I suppose the landscaping is a good idea, but don't tell me that a firm of this size, spending so much on an unusual building, just forgot to tell the council?

Perhaps the council should approve the landscaping, but only if the firm is told to add another metre to its height.
