I agree with what you say about the architecture in the City Centre, but there are just as many (perhaps more) interesting notable places and buildings scattered around the suburbs, Yardley old village, Blakesley Hall, Northfield village, Bournville Village, Kings Norton Village, just to name a few and I really could go on all day.
Sadly Birmingham City Council has little to do with this fact, as they openly have admitted progress is more important than the past. Which as a rule I would agree, but when I see some of the wonderful buildings in Birmingham that have had to go in the name of progress I have to wonder if that is always true, especially when I see some of the buildings that replace them.
