Students and businesses around the site of a huge new Nottingham Trent University building have shared their mixed opinions. Building works are underway at the site of the new nine storey School of Art and Design facility.
The new university building on the corner of Shakespeare Street and North Sherwood Street is replacing three Victorian townhouses and is costing £35 million. NTU says the investment is expected to create over 350 jobs and support its zero carbon commitment.
Forensic science student Matthew Biggs, 22, said: "Considering the old Art and Design school, it is probably a good thing. We are not normally based on this campus so it does not affect us but its good they are doing it near the end of term.
