Finucane Properties Ltd have lodged plans for the development of a four storey building on the site of the former Finucanes electrical store next to Bella Italia on Thomas Street. Last year Café Bar Deli were granted permission for renovations to the existing premises and a change of use to café. Things didn’t exactly go to plan however and the building was reduced to a pile of rubble shortly afterwards. A decision is due by August 11th.

Work is well underway on the part pedestrianisation of upper Thomas Street as is the construction of a new 6 storey mixed use development at the junction with Catherine Street comprising of six retail units with four floors of office accommodation overhead. Meanwhile just across the street, the former kranks chipper, which closed a few months back is currently being re-fitted, probably re-opening as another café.
