We were sad to see it go.
Early last year, Townsend Street’s Screen Cinema shut its doors after 30 years.
It was the end of an era for many, as generations ascended to the cinema for both mainstream and indie flicks.
But after closing it’s door is the spring of 2016, it seemed to be totally abandoned… until now.
It has just been announced that the venue might be turning into a music venue, after an application for planning permission was announced during the week.
The developer is seeking permission for a ten storey building which involves demolishing College House which resides beside the property.
If all goes to plan, the venue will be run by Press Up, which operates the likes of The Dean Hotel, Peruke and Periwig and The Clarence Hotel.
As well as a music venue, the group is also looking to put offices into the above stories of the building.
