Broadcasting Tower, Leeds



Apparently,

''There is no better location for a Leeds student.'' Than Broadcasting Tower, the (atrociously designed) website touts.

It was designed by Sterling Prize-winning architects Feilden Clegg Bradley. By all accounts a talented bunch. However, whilst perusing articles online the nicest words used to describe their creation were ''distinctive, with comfortable and contemporary interiors and stylish decor."

From what I saw of the inside it's your standard student accommodation, much like any other, except pricier.

Ever since I first stepped in to Leeds, two years ago they've been building this disappointing excuse for architecture, and quite frankly it's an eyesore, even if it is ''smack bang outside Leeds Metropolitan University and a stone's throw from the University of Leeds and other academic institutions.''



Badly done, Feilden Clegg Bradley, badly done.
