There's three retail and leisure units left to fill in the new Animate cinema complex - and PaulFaulkner2 reports operators want it all singing and all dancing before it opens rather than staggered opening 🎦
The LDRS, which received a tour of the development this week, has been told that the intention is for individual traders to be able to secure space in the street food hub, without having to commit to lengthy leases – thereby allowing them to test the market for their offering.
The authority is understood to be seeking an umbrella operator to support artisan, entrepreneurial, foodie businesses – ideally local – but is willing to consider all enquiries.The layout of the development will link Animate’s restaurants closely with the indoor market, via an outdoor seating area and terrace.
