BUDDING architects of the future are presenting their own 3D cityscape visions - in the same week that £500m plans to reshape their own town are unveiled.
More than 100 seven to 11-year-olds have been designing their own metropolis. Pupils at Archibald Primary School, Middlesbrough, have produced designs with a medieval, present, future and fantasy look.
The local education authority, Middlesbrough Council, said the youngsters were given free rein over four days of workshops.
Their models, intended to show how town and city architecture has changed and developed over time, have been brought together in the same week that a major consultation exercise was launched to discuss redevelopment proposals to turn Middlesbrough's old Middlehaven dockland into an international landmark with icon buildings in the shape of a toaster, champagne glass, and sugar cubes.
