Two diggers work on demolition of old industrial and factory buildings and the beginnings of construction in Digbeth to make way for housing on 7th August 2023 in Birmingham, United Kingdom. The city is under a long term and major redevelopment, with much of its industrial past being demolished and made into new flats and residential homes. Despite the ongoing Big City Plan regeneration, there is still a great deal of industrial activity in the area, but this is slowly disappearing and local businesses are concerned that compulsory purchase orders will result in being forced to relocate.
