Well about time too!
Can't say that I'm overly keen on the weird "modern" shapes all over it. It will end up looking very dated very quickly I think but still anything's better than whats there.

I really like it. That whole area's really going to be lifted once it and the new college buildings are built. :D

I love the "Sky Platform" style gym, you can do your workout while looking out towards the Forth. The materials they've used on the building means it won't get all dirty looking like the current building. I love the funky glass effects on the pool and gameshall too. Finally a great looking modern building in Glenrothes! ;D Its just a shame its tucked away in a part of the town not many people go to.

Although im not 100% sure if I like the drawbridge style north entrance with the bridge...? The space underneath it could become really dingy. An area where neds can go for a bevie without being seen... ::)

A paper relating to the naming of the new Fife Institute is going to one of Fife Councils committees next week.

Plans have been given the go ahead with NO objections at all.

Peter Grant said to the courier yesterday; “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a planning application on this scale that has not attracted a single word of opposition”.
