This wing of the building lost the top floor and was fitted with a flat roof. It was used by the DSS for years, up until the late 1980s / early 1990s when a new DSS building was built near the old Labour Exchange. This wing has been refurbished and is now part of Coventry university. Report as Inappropriate	Coventry kid	Sunday 29th of December 2013 01:15:03 PM
