Those curved concrete corners are crying out for some Piccadilly Circus style wraparound LED boards:

As for the BBC, let's wait and see it when it's finished.

Isn't it going to get a bit wider though, with the new HMRC building being set back a bit?

Hopefully it will be because a dual carriageway or at least an S4 lane road will need to be put in, don't want a lack of width in a place that high of density. Could be a disaster in the future

i read that wood street will be one lane either way, so the road will be narrow, guess thats why they are putting in that square in front of HMRC.

This.

Or maybe even a live stream from BBC News.

Thats an excellent idea about the live BBC news. Would make the city feel much bigger as well - I know it sounds stupid - but cant think of any other city that does this outside of London. Would give quite a metropolitan feel.

Times Square in New York ?

Shinjuku in Tokyo that makes both feel like a village.

I meant in the UK, apologies

Are you a member of Plaid? If so I’m surprised that you’d want a live stream from the BBC dominating our capital city!

Bye bye Bus Station!

Cardiff is scrapping its bus station plan and starting again
The city has admitted that there will be no bus station before 2020

Not at all.

The story is misleading and frankly, as much as you like him or not, goodway will get the deal done.

They are still aiming for a 2018 start. Victoria in London has taken years to be redeveloped and still isn't complete. It is not unusual.
