The really sad thing is whn all is said and done all that will be there is a big Tesco superstore, with a few chosen others (chosen not to compete with Tesco), as in Sunderland selling the land to a private company to develop is an exercise in stupidity an futility. Well at least we may get the cable car!! The past few weeks there has been a consultaion as to what people want there. I am not a town planner so am not claiming to be an expert on this process but shouldn't this have been done before closing the whole place down, or is it just to hide the fact that in 8 months absolutly bugger all has actually been done.
