The Mailbox is an upmarket development of offices, exclusive designer shops, restaurants, bars and luxury city-centre apartments in Birmingham , England . There is also a mini supermarket. The Mailbox spans several floors, is very long, and at the back is the Birmingham And Worcester Canal . The building was formerly the Royal Mail 's main sorting office for Birmingham (hence its new name), but the redevelopment involved demolition of all but the Steel sub-structure. In 2005, eighty-one year-old actress Mary Wimbush died at The Mailbox studios shortly after a recording session for '' The Archers ''. The Mailbox also has a Hotel and Spa . At the back of The Mailbox it is possible to walk over a bridge and walk along the Canal s near Gas Street Basin . The complex is currently erecting a new state-of-the-art mix-use building called the Cube. This accompanying structure is to be the final phase in the completion of the Mailbox. The Cube will house a rooftop restaurant, boutique hotel and residential apartments. EXTERNAL LINKS |
