I don't want to be pedantic but what I said was that it wouldn't look like your street view as it won't be on the roundabout anymore.  I said nothing about the house not being there.

The roundabout will be moved further North with trees being felled on each side of the road to create a large roundabout  There have been quite a few objections.

I've been to some of the presentations over that last few weeks. I live less than a mile away. The Blue House roundabout has been there for as long as I can remember. I remember being taken around it when I learnt to drive in the early 1970s.

Added - Stan, I see that the map you've put up is a clip from a map given on  my City Council Planning Dept link, it might be copyright so it would be best to put the link up rather than the map, just in case:

Added - hot off the press - 2 JenB has read that the council are altering their plans - see here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-37170972
