The Building
The centre's main distinctions are its glass roof structure and its square atrium at the centre, which is now leased out to seasonal businesses, mainly during festive periods. The centre was last redeveloped in the early 1990s, but much of the upper floor decor consists of open brickwork from the 1980s.
There are two levels in the Quadrant; Boots Group, Debenhams and WHSmith are the only stores occupying the upper level, along with the public conveniences and 'The Gallery', a cafe that overlooks the central area.

Famous quotes containing the word building:

—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Little Bill Daggett: I don’t deserve this. To die like this. I was building a house.
