Shops oppposite Peace gardens

[autumn 10]

Heard a rumour that the building opposite the peace gardens has been issued with compulsory purchase does anyone know if this is true please ? I thought it was just the Salvation Army building ! Thanks .

Someone who claims to be 'in the know' on the SkyscraperCity SRQ thread reckons the whole block will be emptied, with only the facade retained and a new building built behind it for John Lewis to move into. Might just be idle speculation with no grounding in fact though.

'Opposite' = across Pinstone Street, I think- not on St Paul's Parade.

So why has the Co-op bank just moved in to what was JVC??

As far as I know they are, I used to work for a store on the Pinstone street row. The company rolled out an update on all their stores, but the Pinstone street store is on a rolling contract till they have to move on. Therefor that store did not get the update, about 4 - 5 years ago (when I worked there), they went to look at the old Blacks camping shop, but the council put off the relocation while they focused on the Moor.

This is exactly what I thought Jeffrey but someone has told me they are being made redundant from the Supermarket (think Heron foods ,which was Somerville ) because the building has been made a compulsory purchase . I couldn't believe they were going to demolish this lovely building ,that's why I started the thread to find out if it was true .

We were only saying on Saturday how beautiful those buildings are, and across the road where Costa / Laura Ashley are

Can't really, as the Co-Operative bank has just fitted out and opening/opened a new shop on the end of that row (old Panasonic Shop / Army Citadel) - because their current block is being demolished....

 

if it has, it won't happen for another few years at least...

Totally agree Blue Day !

That whole area should be pedestrianised, get some decent restaurants and bars on there and it would be a great focal point for the city.
