I HAVE noticed for a few years now the difficulty of selling the old council offices and presume that the reason it has not been developed is off-road parking.

Maybe the building could be turned into another museum. Subjects of an alternative museum are as follows:

• The Yorkshire Cycling Museum after the successful Tour de France and Tour de Yorkshire.

• The Northern Turf Racing Museum could include information on defunct courses such as Richmond.

• An Oriental Museum with a large Chinese population and visitors from the far east.

• A gardening museum to go alongside tours of Museum Gardens.

The Georgian terrace is similar to Bath where there is the Jane Austen Museum. The building is located with millions of tourists going to the Minster.
