SkylinePhoto Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Im fortunate enough to have a fantastic view of the city centre from my balcony at Park Hill. Directly in front of me is the O2 Academy (Roxy) Nightclub and i have to say it just looks run down and all the exterior lights are a mess. Firstly the half of the bulbs in the actual sign arent working so it just says O2 A**D*MY And most the exterior down lights either dont work or are pointing in the wrong direction or just uncoordinated. The whole building just looks run down. You'd think that as its a Sheffield landmark that they'd take a bit more pride in the look of the venue. Im sure O2 isnt short of cash and a few lightbulbs shouldnt cost that much. You'd think they would get it sorted for the new students arriving. Really annoys me when companies dont take care of their building. Debenhams on The Moor is another culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylinePhoto Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 When it first opened they put these really nice uplighters on the exterior that illuminated it with L.E.D lights that were all colour coordinated. Big bright O2 Academy sign It looked so nice. Now it looks like its been closed down for 10 years but someone forget to turn off the lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) The general area needs tearing down and starting again. Odean, O2 academy and car park, Mecca bingo, some of those disgusting office buildings on Pond hill, they lot of it is one big sprawling mess of 70's rubbish. No wonder people don't want to invest in the city if thats one of the first sights they get stepping off the train.

AmberLeaf Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 It would be nice if they could make it a bit more shiny too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think the outside is bad, you should see the inside, a disgrace, I will not be going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
