A fact from Newcastle Civic Centre appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 20 March 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that in 1977 United States President Jimmy Carter delivered a speech containing the local Geordie phrase "Ha'way-tha-lads!" at Newcastle Civic Centre (pictured), a civic centre in Newcastle upon Tyne, England?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2007/March.

T Dan Smith[edit]

The commissioning coincided with T Dan Smith's administration which is worth a mention for historical context.212.85.13.68 13:56, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I wondered about that, but I couldn't find anything specific about his involvement when I started the article, and as his tenure can be a fairly controversial subject I thought it best not to mention it unless I had a specific source. It would be a useful addition if anybody can help, though. Bob talk 16:17, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Old city hall[edit]

This article refers to a new city hall being built. What happened to the old one? I can't find anything on the web that tells me. Matthew (talk) 22:42, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
