Bloody hell,is that it?All that for that?

How long is this going to be a building site? Went past the "Dortmund Sq" today and nothing going on. I still remember when this was a road and going past Lewis's and Vallances on the bus. Replace by a tree and a fat bloke with a barrel. Except Dortmund probably still has a major brewery!

Here is a pic, hopefully of Fat Bloke with barrel. The only "person" there!
