Came across this on a rat run going home. The digger is sitting about a storey up on the remains of one of the Belfast Tech buildings. The building was a particularly ugly utilitarian block. It's to be replaced, however, by a private development of student accommodation, one of a half-dozen or so which are in the process of going up around the town. All the developments charge or plan to charge a premium for their flats and many of them have caused controversy at the planning stage.
