Happening as you read this.
The smell hits you first.
In the heart of historic Cambridge, walking down Sidney Street you won't quite believe the smell of rotting litter and urine that hits you like a bus. Where is it coming from?
Then you see the big, overflowing bins spilling onto the pavement from a passageway. You take a deep breath and hurry by.
The point of highest Footfall in Cambridge
Derelict & Unused
If you brave Hobson's Passage you will find yourself on Hobson Street and confronted by the empty shell of a former cinema. The atmosphere is in stark contrast to the busy bustling of Sidney Street behind you.
21 Hobson Street has been vacant for 15 years.
Over the years efforts to find a viable use have proven fruitless. Now, in combination with its neighbouring buildings, there is a chance to bring this long dormant site back into use.
