naps Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Anyone have any idea if there are any plans for this site? It's huge, and has such potential, surely the church group moved out years ago, so it's only gathering dust at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichC Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I heard that Mingdom was going to move there when they knock the current site down, although I should imagine that if they were to do so the building would need a lot of work doing to it.

Blade1983 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 dunno. is that area not covered in the overall city redevelopment? like you say - massive site in a prime location - - could get at least 300, 2 bed appartments on that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnh Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Purpose built night club, you'd have thought it would be been snapped up before now by a big organisation! I remember going there on Saturday afternoon's and Tuesday nights in the 60's. I reckon most of the kids in Sheffield were there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEDEX48K Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 They cant redevelop as the owner or part owner (dont know which) of the building/site is overseas and I think is wanted on certain things!. I think they have tried to make contact through various sources but nothing has happend much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulmat Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I don't know of any plans, but I recon the Roxy/Odeon site could make a decent city centre mall, such as the Arndale centre in Manchester. You could fit a few floors of retail, a multiplex cinema, and a carpark on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 It's mega unsafe and it needs a quarter of a million pounds spending WITHOUT doing any major building or refurb work - and only certain things can be done to it anyway without closing the NCP down - which the owners don't want to do. Personally I'd rase the whole lot - leave the Adsetts Centre, but everything past that, both sides of the block, all the way to the corner.

Paulmat Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I meant it would have to be leveled and rebuilt if it was to be a moor, but I didn't realise it was in THAT bad a state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
