The buildings on the site were knocked down, nearly 20 years ago, to make way for a fancy new curvy, stripey office block that was never built. Then it was earmarked for the site of the new Channel 4 HQ, if they moved to Sheffield. When that fell through, the site was left vacant, in case the land was needed for HS2.

Now that HS2 isn't going to happen, we can only wait to see what's devised for it.

I think the land belongs to the Scarborough Group which is owned by the former chairman of Sheffield United. The Scarborough Group owns the shiny, glassy new office blocks on the other side of the road from it.
