Thoughts : As I said before, I bloody love Leeds. All you have to do is pay attention and you will constantly be suprised, amazed, enchanted. The city attracts all sorts and blends them into a vibrant goulash. This corner of Chapeltown typifies the mix. Within a hundred yards you have a Polish convenience store, a pan-Asian supermarket, a West Indian takeaway, a fish and chip shop, and this marvellous building. Starting out as a place of worship for Jewish immigrants, attracted to the city by the once great Leeds clothing industry, it is presently The Northern School of Contemporary Dance, part of the now great Leeds education industry.
What will it be in ten years time? Who knows. But it will be fascinating to watch.
