Absolutely magnificent is centenary square the splendid council building looks beautiful while the genius of Will Alsop city park and his water feature quite simply world class it looks truly amazing thanks to the vision of this great man many folk in this city can't afford to take the kids on holiday to go to the beach so to have this on your doorstep all year round is just unbelievable always makes me happy to see it have to pinch myself sometimes and the icons Alhambra wity the photography museum and old Odeon over looking it that has still not had work started on it in decades another beautiful iconic building but we live in hope you allso have Nandos,lloyds bar and Starbucks fantastic venues it just a great pity and shame the council did not let Will Alsop do the original plan that was breathtaking it would have truly regenerated the whole city it's disgraceful how the council and central government have not given bradford the same as Leeds,Manchester and Liverpool along with London and other places bradford is a great city that needs more investment the people of this great city deserve it since the textile industry finished when bradford was one of the richest city's in the world they did nothing for the folk here need more jobs created no work here I feel for the good...

The space is very pleasant with free Wi-Fi powered by Virgin Media. This enables all to be connected there are coffee shop in the curved building and a Wetherspoon Bar.

The Cake’ole is my favourite spot a good cup of tea & vast selection of cakes.

This space is used for various exhibits attractions throughout the year utilising this wonderful space.
