Had a look online but can't find anything. The way whoever it was from the council who was on CWR this morning was talking made it sound like Ikea rent from the council.Who actually paid to build it? Was it IKEA or do they just lease it?

Although you wouldn't have thought the council would have built something to Ikea's spec without them being tied to a lease.
Turn it into an Amazon warehouse!
Can't currently envision an alternative use.
Conversion to offices,City's awash already, leisure is already well covered unless we're all missing something ,retail dead.
I work in various student lodgings in the city centre as an electrician and sometimes work late and go for a meal in town, the only place I see them is in Noodle Bar. When I venture into town at weekends for food or drink especially Cathedral Lanes there is not a student in sight. Same as Cov station on a Saturday the station is packed with students leaving for the day.
Well according to someone from the council this morning they've already got multiple potential tenants after it.
which out of town sports franchise have they sucked off this time?!
I was listening to CWR this morning as it was still on from the match last night and Donald Trumps speech, some of the people on there were mad, one person thought it should have little craft shops etc you would need hundreds. One guy was saying that he went there everyday for a coffee but had only ever bought one thing apart from that is it any wonder it’s shutting.
Something we're really short of on this country is Prisons . Lol
There it is thenThere were always people in there just using it as a workplace and taking up the tables / phone chargers / plug sockets and making a coffee last for hours.
To be fair, I bought more IKEA stuff from there as it was closer than driving to Bham which I probably wouldn't have bothered doing otherwise.
They could leave the doors open as nobody would ever escape that maze, it did make me chuckle when somebody said there are probably still people trapped in there from the opening day.
There's a thought, could make it into a massive Amazon shop with an Argos type thing for collecting / buying.
Yeah, but in Gregg's!Anyway shopping is high culture to some of the Brexit loving wastrels that inhabit our fair city.
Argos has a whole bad art section of their catalogue though
Mate, you need to "Live Laugh Love" more.
Brexit loving wastrels
You're more in need of a B&Q for some cavity fixings !!Can't fit it on my wall for all the Bob Marley and fake modern art prints I have

Here you go. Now you'll never be in a bad mood cos wise cup say be happy.
That was my point - retail is NOT culture (necessarily). I agree it's not good to promote the "city centre dying on its arse" look ...
