For those who know Bournemouth, we have had a very ugly building on the sea front near the pier for the past 10 years... Its been such an eye sore that it was voted as one of the most hated buildings in the UK..

Well its now been pulled down to make way the new Pier Approach space. :banana:

It looked an attractive building that, what the hell did they pull it down for. All you can see now is the canal in the background.
