The Ipswich waterfront has been transformed in recent years and is a now a thriving area with eating places, flats, the Dance East studio and, of course, the UCS. These first few images are looking across the harbour toward the UCS and old Custom House. A great place to have a stroll and large enough to hold successful public event, which are now quite frequent.

Two views of the massive building, (The old Mill House) housing the Jerwood Dancehouse. Due to be opened in September, the £8.9m Jerwood Dance House, is a major new international centre for dance developed by DanceEast. It will be the first cultural development to be opened in Ipswich in over a decade and provides 2,500 square metres of dance facilities at the heart of a £70m renewal programme in Ipswich. The centre will offer free taster workshops over its opening weekend including Egyptian belly dancing, ballet, hip hop, and musical theatre, to encourage Ipswich residents to get involved in dance.
Ipswich eyesore, as the locals call it. Waiting to be redeveloped, as is scheduled in the not too distant future.

University of Suffolk.
At the time these picture were taken it was the University Campus Suffolk (UCS) and was established in 2007. Because UCS did not have degree-awarding powers, its students received their degrees from either the University of East Anglia or the University of Essex via a cooperative agreement] The institution was later granted degree-awarding powers by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education in November 2015, and in May 2016 it was awarded University status by the Privy Council. As a consequence, UCS was renamed The University of Suffolk in August 2016 and began awarding degrees in its own right.
