Space in an iconic building next to Blackpool Tower is up for sale.
In total, 73,000 sq ft of upper floor commercial space right next to Blackpool Tower is being offered at auction for £1million. The building in Bank Hey Street - which has a distinctive art deco clock - was once the largest Woolworth’s store in the world, before closing in the 1980s and becoming home to Pricebusters for nearly three decades. Sports Direct recently vacated the building to relocate to the nearby Houndshill Shopping Centre.
Earlier this year the building was acquired by Nottingham property developers, the ALB Group, who hoped the vacant upper floors could be converted into a hotel. No reason for the new sale has been given publicly. Auction Estates say the floors have “potential for a range of alternative uses” and “scope for conversion to residential”, both subject to planning permission. The building will be offered in a public auction on August 15 at Trent Bridge Cricket Ground in Nottingham.
