NZ2464 : Collingwood House, Collingwood Street, Newcastle

taken 12 years ago, near to Gateshead, England

Collingwood House, Collingwood Street, Newcastle
Collingwood House, Collingwood Street, Newcastle
Built as the Bank of Chicago in 1971-74 to the designs of Mauchlen, Weightman & Elphick. "Might the full-height oriels be homage to the bank's Chicago skyscraper?" muses Pevsner. The mansard roof is unfortunate.
Most of the retail space was a branch of Subway, the office space above seemingly available to let.
