We go back 32 years to 1990 today for a series of fascinating pictures from The News archive showing the ever-changing face of Portsmouth.

Just look at Cascades, isn’t it sparkling? Looks almost new doesn’t it?

The under-cover shopping complex which joined Commercial Road to The Tricorn had opened on September 26, 1989, about six months before our picture was taken.
