Sheffield projects

I’ve always got a rogue pitch for something that I’d like to be built in Sheffield:

SYMCA should buy Stanage Lodge and turn it into an “investor retreat venue”. They should then wine and dine US VCs pitching Sheffield as the outdoor city with an engineering heritage.

Crookes needs a hub. There is no natural meeting point for group rides or runs. The Crookes sports club could easily be turned into a cafe / community space that becomes the outdoor sports hub of Crookes.

Business canteen. I love the Moor Market - I want cheap, adequate food served in a large hall (school dinners?). The goal of this is to bring together Sheffield’s business community each lunchtime - forcing knowledge spillover.
