The viaduct is an iconic structure, yet the adjacent new development appears to be oblivious to its presence. Yes, the Victorians ignored the viaduct and simply let their buildings crash into/under the arches, but surely we can do better. The placing of the new buildings, as well as their form and materiality needs to reflect a creative dialogue with what exists. The 14 storey(?) block in particular is entirely alien to its context.
