No. It’s made a mess, and some of the surrounding buildings may not open as may not be structurally safe now. Bloody shame.

Just seen a pic. Totally collapsed. The pound bakery survived though

I’ll be amazed if neighbouring buildings survive

Neither the Nail Emporium nor the Works buildings had any architectural merit, their shop fronts looked to be cheap 60s low rise infill. I am surprised they had not been redeveloped ages ago. But the adjacent BHF store is a good one, hope it’s OK.

Nailed on.

I see what you did there

That Acetone is pretty flammable. I'd never heard of the place until now. But I wonder if they will rebuild it again from the ashes lashes.
