This is the problem area of Brighton seafront, between Russell Street and West Street. The site was purchased by Brighton Corporation many years ago with the intention of developing the entire area, which includes the Stadium Car Park, as a single unit.
Since then many suggestions have been made regarding this development. No decision has yet been taken even as to whether it is to be developed by the Corporation or left to private enterprise.
Meanwhile the dilapidated buildings are let on short leases and the area remains an irritating eyesore, right at the focal point of the seafront
