The price of an uncooked rarebit
The Guardian previews the top 50 highlights of what is left of 2005. But what is this at number six?
6. Welsh Assembly, Cardiff
Ignore the savage bitchery surrounding Richard Rogers' building. The Welsh, according to all too many local politicians, wanted a national assembly for the price of an uncooked rarebit; instead, they will get an intelligent, impressive and no doubt globally admired building for a little more. Opens September.
Never mind September, if it opens this year it will be an achievement! Still, nice to be noticed.
