Building Use
Taberner House houses most of the council's central employees and its 'one-stop shop' is the main location for the public to access information and services. In 2013, all of the council's services will move to the new PSDH (Public Services Delivery Hub) being built next to Taberner House. The build covers move ground space but only rises 14 storeys on the highest core. No exact use has been approved for Taberner House when it closes, but its demolishing is to happen and there is speculation that affordable housing will be built there, again as a high-rise tower.

Famous quotes containing the word building:
“No: until I want the protection of Massachusetts to be extended to me in some distant Southern port, where my liberty is endangered, or until I am bent solely on building up an estate at home by peaceful enterprise, I can afford to refuse allegiance to Massachusetts, and her right to my property and life. It costs me less in every sense to incur the penalty of disobedience to the State than it would to obey. I should feel as if I were worth less in that case.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
