ADDITIONAL WORKS - Further investigations of the Wynne Jones structure once initial demolition works were completed revealed considerable constraints with the existing concrete frame. These constraints would have led to inefficient floorplates and floor to ceiling heights that wouldn't comply with Building regulations in certain areas. Therefore, it was no longer viable to retain the structure and the decision was taken to demolish the full building.)
