It sits with the Humber to the front and the River Hull to it's right

Who's been on Google earth then Tom.
What a fantastic plaice.....this is.

I first went when it opened 10yrs ago. had to queue for ages and it was all new.
10 yrs on and it has matured to bring the deep sea to the public with many fascinating facts and displays.

re; 68
i hadn't a clue what the building was until tom said but i think it is quite stunning.
not to everybody's taste but reminds me of the sea sports centre which is an excellent addition to our seafront.
