Stadium House, Cardiff
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stadium House (Welsh: Ty Stadiwm) is a recently refurbished 1970s building situated in Cardiff, South Wales. As its name suggests, the building stands next to the Millennium Stadium. The 255ft (78m) tall building was one of the ugliest buildings in the UK until BT, its owners, took pity on it and the residents of Cardiff and began a £7.1 million refurbishment programme.
The previously drab building is now clad in white and blue concrete, while the roof is topped with a 131ft (40m) stainless steel spire which is lit up green and white in the evening, to compliment the cladding.
