Being a former Dundonian, Half of me says: “Yes it’s got a nautical theme which fits with Dundee’s maritime history and the lines are fairly graceful.” The other half says: “Bloody great eyesore which doesn’t fit architectu­rally to go with the other waterfront eyesores like the Tesco superstore and concrete-y hotels facing the beautiful Tay riverside.

John Mooney Stunning looking building, don’t know how anyone can say otherwise.

It’ll do well as long as it sells Forfar bridies.

Corrie Vrackan Terrible design, but that shouldn’t prevent it from being a success, well done to all involved.

Mediaone So good to see this beautifull­y positioned city throw off the effects of the horrible 70s vandalism. Impressive and exciting building!
