Hi, my name is John Harris,
and I'm the author of The Death of the Department Store, which was published in 2022.
Sheffield is a city that I'm in the habit of going to quite a lot.
And I was aware that when the huge John Lewis store closed there,
there was a sort of ongoing controversy,
quite a sharp argument in the city about what to do with it and whether to knock it down or to repurpose it.
And...
That reflected a huge issue in lots of places up and down the country about empty department stores which sounds very simple but they're the sort of epitome really of all of those tensions that swirl around town and city centres and the idea that they might be being left behind and that people's lives are changing in such a way that they become problematic and I thought Sheffield was a really good prism through which to look at that story.
Not long after that story was published, about six months later,
the building that had been the John Lewis department store in Sheffield was given listed status.
