They all arrived at one time or another, although I don't think the GC lounge ever opened. The cafe has reopened now, which is handy.
One of the problems with Kirkgate is that it's very much at the "ungentrified" end of town... Though at least what changes have been made in the last few years have actually improved things. Unlike at Westgate where there's a shiny new building much better than the old one, but as a result of the relocation integration with bus services is far worse than it ever was with the old 1950s building.

Back to Huddersfield, the main booking hall space is far better now than it was in the 80s and 90s... though the gateline really isn't well organised. There's a gap in the gateline where one of the supporting pillars is, and you'd think that when they designed the gateline they'd put the wide gates either side of that pillar... That way the barrier staff could stand by the pillar ready to assist without blocking one of the other gates... but no, that would be far too sensible!
