City Hall has announced plans to erect its new, er, city hall on the site of a petrol station next to the Soviet monstrosity that is Linnahall (which, confusingly, also translates as 'city hall'). But I have a better idea: why not demolish Linnahall and stick it there? All it attracts is Russian 'stars' and drunk teenagers. And develop a proper foreshore while you're at it: it's the obvious site to open the city up to the bay. Surely one of the development companies that's in bed with City Hall could make something of it?

I agree. Linnahall is disgusting.
It is a blight on the landscape. Destroy it at once, I say!
