00:00 Could you tell me which bit of Sheffield you'd most like to see redeveloped, please?
00:04 I mean it looks like it is now but the city centre, I think it's just dying for some greenery or some new independent shops or something like that.
00:12 I think it's just got a sad place at the moment, so the city centre for sure.
00:17 Could you tell me which bit of Sheffield you'd like to see redeveloped?
00:20 Well I used to live in Sheffield going back 50 years ago and to me everything changes and all these new big buildings keep going up and things get...
00:40 I'm a bit traditional and love the old side of things.
00:47 So for me I like to keep tradition.
00:54 So you'd prefer it didn't get redeveloped?
00:56 So redevelopment, if it could be kept in a...
01:01 If it does a good job of the walk, I think it does pretty good.
01:04 It could be kept in like an old style, it would be better I think than either putting a new building up and making it look different because it's a mix match.
01:20 But times go on, I'm old fashioned.
01:26 Please tell me which part of Sheffield you'd most like to see redeveloped?
01:29 Yeah I think like Parsons Cross and Ecclesfield, I think they'd be good to be redeveloped.
01:38 Is there anything in particular that you'd like to see redeveloped there?
01:41 Just sort of tidy up some of the parks and what have you, make it sort of more family friendly.
01:50 Tell me which bit of Sheffield you'd like to see redeveloped please?
01:54 Obviously the city centre, particularly Fargate.
01:59 I know the redevelopment plan is already well underway but I really would like to see some transformation of that as soon as possible because it's been far too long.
02:12 I think also that right behind where I'm standing now, before my John Lewis, that's a terrible eyesore now and I'd like to see something happen to this as soon as is possible really.
02:29 Could you tell me which part of Sheffield you'd like to see redeveloped please?
02:33 Fargate definitely, it needs a complete revamp and just make people interested in going.
02:40 Do you like the work they're doing on it at the moment?
02:43 I haven't been for a long time so I haven't seen what they're doing apart from I've seen the tram tracks, the old tram tracks that have been removed, just got it removed but I haven't been since so I don't visit the centre very often.
02:58 Could you tell me please which bit of Sheffield you'd most like to see redeveloped?
03:02 It'd be nice to see Cold Brothers back in town, John Lewis and something going on around that part of the city.
03:09 Is there anything in particular you'd like to see?
03:12 A department store to compete with other big cities like Liverpool, Leicester, Nottingham, Leeds.
