Description:Centenary Square lies just off Broad Street which is running North/South to the left of this picture. Five of Birmingham's most imposing buildings are in this scene. The tall glass building to the rear left is the Hyatt Hotel. Across from it, also to the rear, is the International Convention Centre - home also of Symphony Hall, the acclaimed concert venue. Set back to the rear right is the Birmingham Repertory Theatre. In the foreground we have the domed shape of the Hall of Memory which is a memorial to those killed on service in the First and Second world wars. Next to it to the right is Baskerville House - a former city council office building now being redeveloped.
