Anglia Square - the saga continues

Anglia Square is an area of Norwich which has had a lot of attention given to it over the years to try to work out how to update what has become a little 'tired'. 

Its an area that I often park in, as the parking is a lot cheaper than the multi-storey car parks. There have been many plans put forward for developments, including high rise buildings. There are already some fairly run down areas and recently another grand plan fell through it seems.

There is a mural of Alan Partridge on the side of an empty cinema, which had the world premiere of the 'Alpha Papa'.

The latest plan involved Weston Homes, but they had to pull out.  This was a project that was years in the planning, but became uneconomic.

The application is here. 

I wonder what will eventually happen in this area of the city...
