Riverside development April start

[proactive]

A little birdy I was chatting with yesterday*, told me that a certain shoe shop that's currently located on Mill Street is looking to take one of the smaller units.

Personally I don't think this will happen as Mill Street seems busier than ever! (@Jade-clothing ?)

*This is totally unsubstantiated gossip between little birdys !

Funnily enough someone told me the same about the shoe shop, but like you I have serious doubts about that.

One of the shoe shops on Mill Street has talked about an upturn in business recently, so I would be surprised if they'd move.

 

[Jonah]

SOS. Seeing as you're all scared to say even though they have been mentioned before.

 

[bunique]

I was going to say I thought that had been mentioned a few pages back!

 

[Wormella]

I know James in SOS has been keen to move to the new development since it was announced but I've not had chance to catch up with him recently. I've also not been in to SOS since they stopped selling ladies trainers.

So, assuming that's 1 taken, what about the other 2

One is going to be an upmarket shop for men called Acapella. They already have a shop in Stone, lovely gorgeous clothes.

SOS probably fits with the new centre's demographic, apart from M & S.

Ok from what I know from being a sign maker, the 3 smaller units...
The glazing is being fitted soon as the signage brackets have to be fitted to the framework first.

End closest to town - My Belles Icecream/coffee
Middle - I've heard it may be sos from mill street but don't hold me on that
End closest to Costa - something along the lines of aspecto mens clothing

My Belles have applied for an alcohol licence. I'm sure it was mentioned somewhere in this thread.

Isn't there a few empty bigger units? Or have they been let now?

 

[Jonah]

The one opposite M&S is empty and the one next to Costa is going to be a Phones4U! Not sure how though...

 

[Gareth]

No it is not, as they had initially signed before going out of business.

Clearly was not removed from whatever you might be reviewing

 

[John Marwood]

Final list

Comet
JJB
World of Leather
Barratt
Blockbuster

 

[Martin]

She a video on Facebook earlier looks like the new roof there can't handle a slight downpour and leaks

 

[Jonah]

That would fit with the Scaffoldshire Place style of building.

******SENSE OF HUMOUR FAILURE******

My comment of Phones4U was a joke..... and I was looking on the LXB website.

If it was that storm early that was brutal (I know, I walked home though it) - I don't remember anything like that in a long time.

I've just seen the video showing it leaking in H&M - I'm sure they'll be right on that.
