Birmingham New Street Redeveloped

The redeveloped New Street Station was fully opened on 20th September 2015 after a five year project. It replaced a building dating from the 1960s which had been designed to cater for only half the 170,000 passengers who now use the station daily. Above the station the dated Pallasades shopping centre has been swept away, replaced by the impressive Grand Central incorporating its flagship store, John Lewis.
