Council: Development 'goes far beyond' City of Culture plans
Hull City Council has unveiled a £25 million plan to transform the city centre. The facelift is said to be the largest project of its kind in Hull's history.
It includes street-level fountains, a new public square, and a new stage in Queen's Gardens. Councillors say it will get the area ready for Hull's year in the spotlight as the UK City of Culture in 2017.
