It
is
a
waste
of
potential
and
a
sad
state
of
affairs.
While
the
building
itself
holds
promise
and
the
few
shops
there
are
great,
the
centre
is
mostly
dead
and
empty,
and
the
maintenance
is
abysmal.
When
it
rains
the
roof
leaks
everywhere
and
they
use
loads
of
buckets
to
catch
the
water,
half
of
the
escalators
are
ever
switched
on
and
when
the
ones
before
tesco
fail,
It
takes
them
almost
a
month
to
get
them
going
again...
resulting
in
queues
of
old
people
waiting
in
front
of
the
two
elevators
that
somehow
still
work.
When
I
stayed
in
Malawi
(Africa)
the
few
escalators
that
they
had
there
where
a
thing
of
pride
and
an
attraction.
If
one
of
them
broke
down
it
would
get
fixed
within
days
by
flying
some
Chinese
technician
down
asap.
And
in
walkden,
in
the
middle
of
the
UK,
they
just
can't
be
bothered.
Guys,
really?
Edit:
highlights:
large
Tesco,
fun
little
shops
(if
you
can
find
them),
a
cafe,
a
few
banks,
spacious,
kinda
clean,
large
parking,
and
a
bingo
centre.
I
have
inside
information
that
the
management
overcharge
for
rent
and
don't
care
about
the
centre
at
all,
which
is
why
it's
mostly
empty
and
poorly
maintained.
