Forget the i360, a GENUINE eyesore is on the way...

Even the people involved in the application (who a friend knows) didn't believe the council would approve this in a million years:

It seems we're entering the age of anything goes when it comes to planning applications in Brighton & Hove...

I like it.

 

[Buzzer]

It looks like one of those things that connects an airport to a plane. Still not as bad as the i360 though.

 

[Hillian1]

Eye popping but subtle?

That's about as subtle as a flying sledgehammer.

I like it.

 

[MattBackHome]

I like it.

 

[spring hall convert]

Wow. I quite like it.

It's hardly going to be as dominant in the skyline as the i360 is it?

 

[Chicken Run]

Sorry but it's cool, anyway won't be built this is Brighton. You'll be showing bullet shaped monorails and ice stadiums next!!

 

[n1 gull]

I like it!

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

What an absolutely tragic design! It looks like a school project with old cereal boxes.

 

[Notters]

I don't mind it at all, but don't think it really suits the Town Hall or The Lanes.

 

[Easy 10]

Bit uninspiring. It looks like a shipping container. And its obviously not going to be "open early next year". They must mean 2018, but even that's probably optimistic.

I hate sushi anyway.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

**** me. A big yes from me.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I await the usual nonsense from the usual sources.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

I think it's nice!

I love it. And I like modern architecture. Double win for me. Can they pop a craft beer bar up there as well?

Could look good in Jubilee Square, be a bit out of place in Bartholomew Square. But, on the other hand, it should get some quite good sea views I'd imagine.

There's a craft beer shop just around the corner in East Street. Buy from there and smuggle it in!

I think I may have agreed with you if it wasn't for the fact it's surrounded by properly ugly buildings like the Thistle hotel. The town hall is actually the odd building out.

Brighton is a new city, diverse in the making, so why not be diverse in moving on to new architecture.
Change is good, I like it.

Bison, good call!
