Drake Circus Shopping Centre is a 425,000-square-foot (39,484 m2)[2] covered shopping mall in the centre of Plymouth, England, which opened in October 2006.[3]
The building was designed by London-based architects Chapman Taylor[1] and built by Bovis Lend Lease.[1] Situated behind the ruined Charles Church, preserved as the city's civilian war memorial, the building provoked a mixed reception.[4] Just after it opened, the shopping centre won the inaugural Carbuncle Cup "for crimes against architecture", as the worst new building in the United Kingdom.[5][6] In 2007, it won two retail industry national awards, one of which was the Retail Week magazine's "Shopping Location of the Year".[7]
