This is the unfortunate paint job at an Art Deco building on Commercial Street in Sheffield

City Centre, close to Ponds Forge Leisure Centre. It's caused great controversy since
00:11
photos of the paintwork were shared on Twitter. It's been described by one person as greyification.

Sheffield City Council said it's aware of the building being painted, and they say that
00:22
while it's unfortunate, they've looked into it, and they have no jurisdiction over the
00:27
building, as it's not listed and is privately owned. The building in question is not listed,
00:34
but it is beside the Grade 2 star listed Canada House building. It is not within a conservation

area.
