The image captures a significant moment for the Teesside Chamber of Commerce as they proudly announce their acquisition of the former Midland Bank building at the prominent corner of Albert Road and Marton Road. The architectural beauty of this historic structure is undeniable, with its grand facade standing tall against a backdrop of bustling city life. Its presence exudes an air of elegance and importance that perfectly reflects the significance it holds within Middlesbrough's history. Taken on July 14th, 1988, this photograph immortalizes a pivotal moment when commerce and heritage intersected.
