Who knew that a car park could be so interesting. Lee Circle car park in Leicester is a textbook example of brutalist architecture that had become popular throughout the 50s 60s and 70s.
Concrete was the building material of choice as it was cheap and could be made into almost any shape... and it seems they went to town. Today we might not look favourably at these structures but at the same time, they're an important piece of architectural history so surely we should hold onto these impressive structures.
This car park could also claim to be the first that offered an automated coin operated barrier system as well as housing the largest supermarket in Europe!
