Teresa Fry, co-ordinator and editor and the 90 years project and curator of the 90 years exhibition said: “To celebrate 90 years of the Building Centre we invited a wide range of people to choose what, for them, represented the best of the built environment created in, or refurbished over, the past 90 years. We stressed that their choice should be something that really resonated with them, and not based solely on artistic or architectural merit.
“When we reached the 90 we threw it open to the general public to pick their favourite, and the Piece Hall was overwhelmingly the number one choice.” The Piece Hall reopened in 2017 after an extensive refurbishment. This stunning heritage site is now an award winning hub for arts, culture, retail and community.
