How that managed to get such a colossal structure into the centre of Hull through all those narrow streets is beyond me. Well done guys!!
Great idea and brilliantly done!
Siemens is a major development for alternative energy (shame they are no longer bringing their research and development due to Brexit) and will help make Hull a thriving centre of wind technology. Just what we need – a major development of a great area – much needed jobs – and a big financial boost for the region.
Alternative energy is the future – wind, solar and tidal energy is sustainable and non-polluting! Forget your dirty coal, oil and gas!! Hull could become a centre for the whole world! So it was appropriate that the organisers of the year of culture thought up such a brilliant idea. It looks wonderful. It is massive. What a backdrop to the old buildings in the city centre.
Unfortunately it was a bit of a dank January day when we went! But it didn’t spoil it! I loved it.
Here’s a few photos:
Inside the refurbished Ferens Art Gallery.
Queen Victoria Square and the majestic blade in the twilight!
WE ARE HULL!!!
You could feel the electricity!! We are Hull!! The gateway to the fabulous East Riding – the cliffs of the North Sea – Bempton Bird Sanctuary, The wonderful Wolds with the rolling hills made famous by Hockney, Seaside resorts like the rejuvenated Bridlington, The Yorkshire Moors and on to Robin Hood’s Bay and Whitby!!
BRILLIANT!!!
The Best Countryside on Earth!!
City Hall and the Ferens Art Gallery Lit up like never before! 
WE ARE HULL!!!
We’ve been deprived and down but we are on the up!! 
Incredible scenes play out on the Ferens Art Gallery. 
Huge crowds roaring with pleasure. Those from Hull full of pride! 
And off at the end down Whitefriargate!!
Hull – The City of Culture!!! What a night!!!
The only fly in the ointment is the lamentable Hull City Council. There are still road-works and open sites, lots of construction sites!! It all should have been finished in time! They should have pulled out all the stops! This was Hulls big chance to shine and they have let us down again!!
The New Theatre closed!! It is a joke!!
Hull is brilliant! We had a SUPERB display! Why oh why don’t the council get themselves sorted out?
