Building Use
Taberner House houses most of the council's central employees and its 'one-stop shop' is the main location for the public to access information and services. In 2013, all of the council's services will move to the new PSDH (Public Services Delivery Hub) being built next to Taberner House. The build covers move ground space but only rises 14 storeys on the highest core. No exact use has been approved for Taberner House when it closes, but its demolishing is to happen and there is speculation that affordable housing will be built there, again as a high-rise tower.

Famous quotes containing the word building:
“I love art, and I love history, but it is living art and living history that I love.... It is in the interest of living art and living history that I oppose so-called restoration. What history can there be in a building bedaubed with ornament, which cannot at the best be anything but a hopeless and lifeless imitation of the hope and vigour of the earlier world?”
—William Morris (1834–1896)
“For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.”
—Bible: New Testament, 2 Corinthians 5:1.
