Westside

Posted by: Simon on: 26th November, 2008.

Eastside, meet Westside.

Anyone want to start a Westside blog?  Far more exciting than dull Eastside.  You have three planned 150m+ towers, controversial plans to knock down Central Library, Arena Central development and reshaping of Centenary Square for the new library etc.

Simon Felton at Birmingham Central and Jon Bounds at Brum it’s a hit (OK, It’s Not Shit!) has also covered Westside.

i’d be up for doing a westside blog (since i actually live there !), if i had a bit of advice on what & how to cover it…

Cool. I can fill you in on some information.

I have registered http://westsideblog.wordpress.com, however if you want to set up your own that is perfectly fine by me.

Is there a Southside blog?

I imagine there’d be some really interesting things to cover with the regeration, the gay village plans and some of the artsy stuff going on there.
