A ‘RETURN’ TO THE MASTERPLAN ‘VISION’ . . . continuing the thread
One compelling theme throughout our initial conversations was thatBradford is ‘hidden’ . This bred a desire to uncover the Bradford‘experience’, starting with its position in the region, at the centerfold ofa ‘Coast to Coast’ map stretching from Liverpool to Hull. We then lookedat its wonderful topography and buried water courses;At the network of centres – high streets, village greens, paradesand corner shops. We examined its special features – listed buildings,historic landmarks and panoramic views. Above all we discoveredthe diversity and strengths of its people. (Forward, Alsop Architects 2003)
To create a city centre “where people are justifiably proudof where they live, learn, work and play”
