As part of celebrate Leeds 2007 i think it would be a good if the Leeds folk had a say in what places they'd like to see open to the public on the Heritage day in Sept. I think most people know about it already-but for those who don't it's when the council & some private homes & buisness let people have a look around otherwise out of bounds places. Some places open every year & others are more elusive. The Odeon in the Merrion has only opened once & since the owners have recently announced a possible redevelopement i think it should deffinately be included for a last chance viewing.

Thanks for that link. Did you notice the application was 20 months ago & nothings been done yet? This is the heritage website & where they opened in 2006 http://www.leedscivictrust.org.uk/opendays.htm

But it seems as though eventually everything will become luxury apartments.
