Writing task MAC 3 (I guess)  Pg 39 - Resource Pack - ex 7.

Dear Mr. Bill Jones

I am writing this letter to oppose about the plans for the new library; I may say that when I saw the plans, I sensed a good variety of mistakes.

Firstly I feel that the decision to use concrete should be rethought, besides the location is suitable to use the local stone, not only to the building but as well to support the quarries, not only this, with time, concrete tend to lost its beauty.

Even living nearby the coast, there is not a need to build it based on a ship, it wouldn’t pass a good sensation having a boat-looking library in the town, since ships were made with the initial intention to stay in the sea and it may not fit to be a model building. Another issue I could notice is the absence of windows, which give to the place a need to use more lamps to illuminate the place instead of natural light, spending more with illumination that the necessary if solar light could enter in to the building.

What really called my attention was the plan which our gardens are going to be replaced by paving stones, our city has enough pavements, and there is a need for a natural place along the streets, putting that aside would make the city lost the few green points we have.

Hoping a change, yours faithfully, Mr. Barking
