chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/optimism-over-changes-eldon-square-28819367
Quick Glance: Optimism over Changes at Eldon Square with Two Major Brands
- An empty unit in Eldon Square will be getting a new tenant this year. A NEXT department store will be moving into the former Debenhams from November.
- The beauty brand Sephora will also be joining the shopping center. NEXT's Jayne Pushon expressed excitement for the launch of a new large format store in Newcastle.
- Proposals to transform vacant parts of Eldon Square into new leisure zones are also in progress. The £65 million scheme would involve leading leisure operators creating two attractions, including an overhaul of the old Eldon Leisure center with food and drinks venues, and activities such as an electric go-karting circuit, batting nets, mini golf, bowling, and virtual reality games.
- City Council leader Nick Kemp emphasized that the opening of these stores will not only attract more visitors to the city but also create jobs and boost the economy. Collaboration with partners is key to creating more opportunities in Newcastle that help grow an inclusive economy benefiting all residents.
