Simon Fanshawe and Brighton and Hove's councillors (November 22) neglected to mention one thing about the failed Brighton Marina development plans: The proposed skyscraper would have been pug ugly.
Since the Second World War, Brighton has built plenty of unattractive, high-rise blocks, thus defacing the city's skyline and doing little to deal with its housing problems.
Would it really have been worth building another, just to receive the dubious distinction of "tallest skyscraper in Sussex"?
-John Gammon, Brighton
