Your last aerial B&W photo of the docks, is the one on my wall, can't ever see anything in the new Cardiff so photographed in the future.
Central Square is an empty concrete space, void of any character except of dozens of skate-boards zooming around.
Not to mention the dopey replacement bus station, to impress the visitors who arrive my train and looking for buses across south Wales. 
Some years back I wrote to BBC Wales describing how as an Englishman I was fascinated with the stories that the older people that I would meet as I walked in Cardiff Bay.
I went on to say that in the near future these people and their stories would be gone forever.
Would it not make an interesting programme to document their tales while still alive?
I got a polite reply saying that they could not see any likely interest or demand?
I was new to Cardiff back then and learnt so many things that interested me.
Like the Penarth tunnel;
Hidden Image/Members OnlyThe view from the front of the tunneling shield taken on the 1st July 1897. These were incredible people indeed who toiled in such conditions inside the shield. It was heavy physical work in cramped claustrophobic conditions. The chamber was subjected to increased atmospheric pressure generated by an air compressor installed above ground and intended to create an environment where water ingress was reduced. However, this internal pressure increased the possibility of a sudden catastrophic blow out. The hydraulic mechanisms to move the shield forward may be seen at the left and right hand sides (there probably about six hydraulic cylinders in total situated around the periphery of the shield) and the control valves are laid out on the bulkhead (wall) around the airtight door.
That Churchill Way, outside Bann Sakunee was the site of the Glamorganshire Canal, Merthyr to Cardiff Docks, which is still there under the road but filled in.

In 1963/4 a factory, comprising two vast sheds one either side of the former main runway at its northern end, was erected to manufacture transmissions and axles for Rover and Land Rover vehicles. The airfield's perimeter track was upgraded and named 'Rover Way', presumably at about this time. The factory closed in November 1984. The airfield site continues to be redeveloped with housing and industrial units; the names of some of the new roads recall the former airfield and include Runway Road, Seawall Road, Hawker Close, Handley Road, Halifax Close, Clos Avro and De Havilland Road, amongst others. It is unlikely that any buildings associated with the aerodrome, within the perimeter track, have survived. However, to the south west of the airfield, in Seawall Road south of Willows Avenue and centred on ST20807640, four hangars and associated buildings are visible on RAF photography dated 01 March 1941, with a fifth hangar erected by 25 June 1942 and a substantial rail-served factory added to the west a little later, certainly by 30 May 1947.
