 | | Birmingham became a Centre of the British canal and later railway networks in the early 19th century. |
 | | However, in recent years the city Centre has been extensively renovated and restored with the construction of new squares, the restoration of old streets, buildings and canals, the removal of much-derided pedestrian subways, and the demolition and subsequent redevelopment of the Bull Ring shopping centre, which now includes the architecturally unique Selfridges building. |
 | | Birmingham's other city- Centre Music venues include The National Indoor Arena (NIA), CBSO Centre, Adrian Boult Hall (ABH) at Birmingham Conservatoire and the Birmingham Town Hall,currently closed for refurbishment, which played host to many classical and Popular Music performances from the late 1800s. |
