Some of us actually adore brutalist architecture.  NOT EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE WARM CUDDLY GINGERBREAD.

Indeed, I also like a good brutalist building and, as I said, this one is well regarded, afaik.  The only issue for me was to wonder whether the architecture is a good match for a WRPS station, in terms of police image.  At the end of the day, the main thing is that the building is finding new life, which is great.
