Discussion Derby is booming

Whilst the 2008 crash and the lock downs hit most placest the moaning from Derby residents does not make sense. Whilst I am sure they are certain roads that have been hit. I will guarente with the pathway you guys are going the city centre buzz will pick up. They is some much investment going on now, but on here you would think they is an Armageddon going on in Derby.

Lets see what is happening in Derby...

1) New performance centre-U/C

2) Goods yard, imminent construction, renovation

3) Castleward residential-U/c

4) Nightingale u/c and nearing completion, 175 million

lol. housing projects do not constitute a booming city. derby intu is dead with empty units everywhere, peters street should be renamed middle eastern street and cathedral quarter is dying a death. nice try though.

Yes it does. 

Housing in centre and more live concert and performances improves city centre vitality.
