It was an awful design; which was never going to work, the fact they didnt consult with the market traders of old in the previous indoor & outdoor market.

The plot of land is not that big at all, how many screens could it possibly have 2???

unbelievable

just read about this as I got a notification on my facebook from Wakey Express.
£100k relocation package for those businesses in there is a joke too

Its to make way for a Newmarket, if you get my drift

WMDC have now realised how they replaced what was a thriving indoor/ outdoor market with plenty of parking in very close proximity with a small expensive white elephant. Rents are far too high for a start and even when tenants plead with them to let them stay for reduced rent they would rather see the space empty. Having worked in the old meat market for several years and shopped in the outdoor market for many years I appreciate the great loss it was to the City. The new market has nowhere near the variety / quantity or character of stalls of its predecessor. Whilst the Trinity Walk is a fantastic addition to the City a market with all the old attributes is also a must.

This!

Despite being annoyed at the waste of money and the stubborn stance taken by the Council on the poor design and the high rents, this is an opportunity to put things right.

Correct but do we really need another multi sceen cinema?

Will they really put things right though?
My prediction is that they will do it on the cheap, permanent market stalls all the way down the precinct.
No upkeep of a market area!

I blame the RFL for this and I won't go to this new cinema.

not lost your charm have you

....

The market lost it when this new one was built,the old one though old a shabby was brilliant the new design just isn't right.
I quite like trinity walk but the market is awful and yes wakey doesn't need another cinema.
A lot of shops closing at the minute in centre aswell.....
