The Tower is closing again, their final night will be Feb 1st. To be honest, I didn't realise it was still open.
Fort Paull Facebook Page Unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances Fort Paull will remain closed and won't be reopening. So this page will also be closed down , we would just like to thank all our loyal customers and rally / event teams for their support and custom over the years before we close it , thanks again all the staff at Fort Paull.
Congratulations to those responsible for making Hull change so quickly. I hardly recognised it. The redesigned Castle Street bridge going over the rerouted river looks most impressive as does the extended Trinity Church/Minster. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/hull-explore-universal-basic-income-21322240
I read every national paper online which is free. And even the HDM. Whyhave something available and not use it? Haven’t bought a paper since I first had a PC. Some people only read one thing, usually one which agrees with their views,which explains their lack of awareness of things. If I only read the City page of the HDM like some people do I wouldn’t have known about that poor lad and therefore wouldn’t have donated and posted about it which meant others, including yourself, generously helped him as well.

Pool of Mirrors (above) was an installation by Kazimier for River of Light 2018. Let there be light! Hull to host captivating outdoor event Hull city centre will be lit up this month with a spectacular three-day event celebrating the city’s rich maritime heritage. Navigate, featuring mesmerising sculptures and outdoor exhibits from the acclaimed Kazimier team, will celebrate the start of the Hull: Yorkshire’s Maritime City project and take place from Thursday 30 January to Saturday 1 February from dusk until 9pm each evening. Councillor Dave Craker, portfolio holder for culture, leisure and tourism, said: “Hull has a proud cultural heritage and a strong artistic identity, catapulted by the success of Hull City of Culture 2017. Art and culture will play an important part in Hull: Yorkshire’s Maritime City and we are already working with artists to discuss how their talents and creativity can be incorporated into other elements of the project. “This incredible installation from Kazimier is a great example of how art and culture can play an important role in the exciting regeneration and future of our city.” Navigate will include four installations – Meridian, Oracle, Zenith and Pendopo – across the city centre. Large beams of light will be shone from Hull City Hall and over Whitefriargate as part of Meridian. Using four powerful lasers, a visual line is created in the night sky, a point of reference for those navigating the city. please log in to view this image Falling Stars, Kazimier. A light installation from St Luke’s Church in Liverpool. An eight-metre lighthouse, Oracle, which has been specifically commissioned for Navigate, will float in Prince’s Dock and show the superstitions and importance placed on the weather and what it holds for the fortunes of those venturing to sea. Linked wirelessly to meteorological sensors, the Oracle takes real-time readings of wind speed, humidity, pressure, temperature and rain. Queen Victoria Square will also be home to a chorus of kinetic sculptures, Zenith, producing an immersive sonic landscape of the sea. Trinity Square will host the Pendopo, a sound and laser installation containing a remarkable robotic musical instrument inspired by the metallic sounds of East Asia’s Gamelan percussion ensembles. please log in to view this image Cetus, Kazimier.

Hull: Yorkshire’s Maritime City is the city’s latest major project, with £27.4m set to be invested in the city’s maritime site in the next few years, celebrating Hull’s 800-year maritime heritage. Councillor Daren Hale, portfolio holder for economic investment and regeneration, said: “We are just at the start of this amazing journey, which will see the city’s rich maritime heritage celebrated and reimagined through a multi-million pound investment that will include the refurbishment of historic maritime sites and the creation of a brand new and world-class visitor destination for the city. “This is a brilliant way of celebrating the start of the Hull: Yorkshire’s Maritime City project.”
Spectacular plans show the waterfront homes that will transform Hull's riverside Up to 800 new waterfront homes could be built please log in to view this image Plans for the biggest housing scheme seen in the city centre for generations are expected to be submitted later this year. Up to 800 new homes are envisaged along the east bank of the River Hull, stretching from Drypool Bridge to Myton Bridge. The land was acquired by Hull City Council two years ago after securing a £5.7m grant from Homes England to support the purchase of two nearby sites. One was the former Clarence Mill site next to Drypool Bridge and the other includes the empty Grade II listed former Trinity House buoy shed which was last used as a base for diving firm Northern Divers. Other sites inside the the 2.8 hectare waterfront development boundary include the Dock House emergency homeless shelter and land south of Scale Lane bridge currently used for car parking. Apart from Dock House, the only current business overlooking the river is barge and tanker operators John H. Whitaker. please log in to view this image Since the council acquired the land, the only visible change has been a series of street art events where spray artists have been invited to create new works on boarding around the old mill site. Survey work has also been carried out in different locations to assess soil conditions and possible contamination issues as a legacy of the area's industrial past while the Environment Agency continues to install new flood defences in the immediate area.
The Castle Street Bridge looks good but the problem is it has been anything but a quick project , it should have been done many years ago
Article in the Daily Fail today about naming it. Nothing decided though suggestions form the 'headscarf' to Ronson Bridge and Larkin Bridge have been muted.
