You'll notice one of the prominent features of the city, a 10-storey brutalist tower block (probably the closest thing Bangor had to a 'skyscraper') known as the Alun Roberts Building (aka the Chemistry Tower), covered with scaffolding in the process of demolition. This was the university's chemistry building, where my dad used to work over a decade ago, which had sadly fallen out of use in recent times. I wonder will be built in its place.
Bangor' shopping scene has gone severely downhill since the Debenhams shut, and the council royally shot themselves in the foot when they refused to let Primark take over (which would've saved the city imo), despite the building being perfect to house one and the fact Bangor could do with a Primark with its student population and the fact there are currently only two of them in North Wales (Wrexham and Llandudno).
End of video with the courtyard is where we used to go for our end of term exams - huddling together worried out of our minds lol :)

It looks nice. Is it a nice place to live ?
I think so. Quite a few brand grocery stores are dotted there and transportation is also superb.
Place is a dump, third world city.
@@lizlawrence4553 Really? In what way?
@@002lisamarie A dying high street. Property standards aimed at students, so scummy at the best. It's city status should go to llandudno.
@@lizlawrence4553 OK thanks. Are there any nice areas?
My husband and love your videos especially narrated thank you 👏👏
All those empty shops. This country is going to the dogs.
