If the building is unsafe then so be it but at least keep the facade as you did with St david's hospital. Nobody in a 100 years will remember the glass and concrete monstrosities being built today but real architecture should live on.

Cardiff Council should be preserving our heritage, not turning the capital into a bland collection of faceless office buildings, generic shopping centres and "luxury" apartments. We are lucky to live in a city with an interesting history and diverse architecture, and we should be encouraging the renovation and utilisation of old buildings such as this. Look at some pictures of what you have already destroyed, Cardiff Council. Learn from your mistakes.

Could we lose it and it not be noticed. Is there anything unique about it?

When you consider the arches along the street level of the building, it is clear te building has middle eastern or Moroccan influences. Therefore it would be a shame to lose a building of historical importance that could be preserved. We've already ripped a lot of the history out of Cardiff bay, covered over the old canals, covered the glamorgan canal. Lets not continue with mindless demolition, but keep the history and adapt the city.
