Some describe the pyramid as an 'eyesore' while others say it's the town's 'answer to the Liver Building'
If there is one landmark in Greater Manchester that has set tongues ablaze since it was first dreamt up its Stockport's Pyramid. And people aren't shy when it comes to expressing their opinions on what they think of it, and what it should be used for.
"It is the most ancient mortuary complex in existence. It was the first large-scale building in the world and it's similar to the Stockport Pyramid." After the developers went bankrupt, the building was repossessed by the Co-operative - who had paid for its construction. The building lay dormant and empty for three years before the Co-op decided to move in to set up their base of operation for their call centre in 1995. However, It was during this time when the pyramid gained its cursed status.
Elliott wasn't the only one who saw the building's potential as a night spot. Si Carty, posted: "That would make the best club ever," while Julie Leach, said: "Should definitely be a nightclub."Emma Cohoon also thought the giant glass structure would make a "nice bar, nightclub and restaurant."
