Hull Paragon Interchange
Hull Paragon Interchange is a transport interchange providing rail, bus and coach services located in the city centre of Kingston upon Hull, England. The G. T. Andrews-designed station was originally named Paragon Station, and together with the adjoining Station Hotel, it opened in 1847 as the new Hull terminus for the growing traffic of the York and North Midland (Y&NMR) leased to the Hull and Selby Railway (H&S). As well as trains to the west, the station was the terminus of the Y&NMR and H&S railway's Hull to Scarborough Line. From the 1860s the station also became the terminus of the Hull and Holderness and Hull and Hornsea railways.
At the beginning of the 20th century the North Eastern Railway (NER) expanded the trainshed and station to the designs of William Bell, installing the present five arched span platform roof. In 1962 a modernist office block Paragon House was installed above the station main entrance, replacing a 1900s iron canopy; the offices were initially used as regional headquarters for British Rail.
A bus station was erected adjacent to the north of the station in the mid-1930s. In the early 2000s plans for an integrated bus and rail station were made, as part of a larger development including a shopping centre; St Stephen's shopping centre, a hotel, housing, and music and theatre facilities. The new station, named "Paragon Interchange" opened in September 2007, integrating the city's railway and bus stations under William Bell's 1900s trainshed.
The station is currently operated by TransPennine Express, which provides train services along with Northern Trains, Hull Trains and London North Eastern Railway.

Albert Hall Music Hall
The Albert Hall Music Hall on 10 Midland Street was one of the first music halls built in Kingston upon Hull, England. The building is believed to have been built following the creation of Midland Street, and officially opened for the first time in 1874. It was turned into a saloon bar and pub in the early 20th century, before its final transformation into a bingo hall in the 1970s.
In 2015, the Hull City Council served a Section 215 notice on the building's private owners, ordering them to repair and restore it by the end of the month or pay the bill for its subsequent demolition. The building was considered to be in a potentially dangerous condition after a survey was carried out following a fire in May 2015 at a neighbouring building. It was partially demolished in June 2015. The building is currently owned by Tawazun London Limited.
