Allies and Morrisson and CZWG scheme slammed

Designs by CZWG, Allies & Morrison and Carey Jones for a canal-side development by Isis in Leeds have been branded "staggeringly insensitive" in a last-ditch attempt to stop them getting through planning.

The Leeds Civic Trust fumed: "It is shocking that council officers are recommending approval of such a staggeringly insensitive and inappropriate scheme which in its physical impact is directly at odds with all the strategy documents produced by the council for the Canal Basin and the Dark Arches in the past 10 years."

Wowee. When was the last time that uber-safe Allies and Morrisson got panned for anything? I'm rather excited. And what are the Dark Arches? Sounds like something from Harry Potter.
