55 Degrees North

This is the former Swan House, built in the 1960's and widely derided as a concrete monstrosity. It sits at the bottom of Pilgrim Street in Newcastle's city centre and is a prominent sight to traffic coming over the Tyne Bridge. The area is in the middle of redevelopment, after which it may seem a little less conspicuous.
