Too many iconic buildings in Plymouth have been left to rot. Luke’s challenge to their owners is simple: invest in these buildings or sell them to someone who will.

In 2022, Luke launched his first ever Buildings at Risk List – ten important buildings in our city that have fallen into disuse and disrepair – asking their owners to invest or sell.

Luke published his second Buildings at Risk List in 2023, with work underway on four of the buildings featured on his original list: the Reel Cinema, Raglan Gatehouse, St Simon’s Church in Mount Gould and the outside detailing of the RBS/ NatWest building in the city centre.

Luke will be updating the Buildings at Risk List on an annual basis until Plymouth’s historic buildings are brought back to life.

Luke said:

“Plymouth has a proud history and these properties tell our story. Many are over a century old, surviving the Plymouth Blitz and the wrecking ball of past regenerations.

 

“It’s time these buildings were given a new lease of life, a fresh purpose and a brighter future.”
