Another well known Swansea building erased from the skyline as city regeneration continues

This is all that remains of a well-known four-storey building in the heart of Swansea city centre which has been torn down. The Llys Dewi Sant building, located near the former St David's Shopping Centre, has been demolished to make way for regeneration works.

A few years back, the building provided housing for retired people - before they were moved to a new sheltered housing complex at the former Vetch Field football stadium - but it was used more recently as a site office for construction workers and staff involved in the development of the Copr Bay district and Swansea Arena.

The building has now been demolished and construction workers are set to begin redevelopment works very soon. Ultimately, the site will form part of the upcoming Swansea Central North development site which Swansea Council says will house "a new vibrant mix of offices, leisure and residential, linking the city centre to the Copr Bay arena and waterfront."
