They were based in the old David Evans store. |  |

This appears very plausible. I noticed things like Calendars/decorations inside there today |  | | |

I have made the offer by pm to you to walk your around the city to see for yourself but so far you have not taken it up and instead go on about things years as they were years ago. Read Jack Lord's post he has seen changes for the better. The difference between us and you is that we visit the place and you don't. You prefer just to comment on as things were 10 or 20 years ago.
Even High Street which was a sh@thole years ago has improved. Granted it still needs further improvement but the Coastal led changes are a making it better than it was.
As I said to you people like Walkabout and Wetherspoons haven't spent large sums of money for nothing. Dennys would certainly have looked into the risks before making Swansea their first UK store. Smiggle is about to open on Whitewalls. Since August a Caribbean restaurant has opened on Castle Street, a Mexican on Princess Way and a Cuban on York Street. The Swans shop has just opened on Union Street. Krispy Kreme, Country Candles and a beauty salon have opened in the Quadrant. A number of people have moved into units around the top end of Princess Way and the Kingsway.
The old BHS store is currently undergoing a refit. We don't know what is going there but it certainly isn't a Mosque at least downstairs from the look of the shelving going up. This is in the last few months.
In recent years 2 new reataurants have opened opposite the old Sidney Heath building. A cinema, desert restaurant and a Boss bar have opened on Castle Street. Shops such as Yours and STA have opened on Whitewalls. The Dolphin hotel has reopened after years being closed.
The problem is you prefer not to see this for yourself instead making comments which are totally outdated. |
You make it sound like a bustling centre like back in the late seventies. Do you think there is any chance of getting a nice city center green area ... something like Castle Gardens used to be before the current concrete arrangement? |  | | |

I'm afraid it's bad news. I was outside the shop yesterday and inside I noticed a large number of boxes addressed to "WHAT" at a Cardiff address. "What", is a poor man's Hyper Value. I hope that they are there only for Christmas, but don't bank on it. They already have large units at Hirwaun and Aberdare. | | | |

So much for a flagship store. Swansea is crying out for a House of Fraser or John Lewis. | |

Cardiff get every thing in retail, but not what we have in football, well unless they get lucky. | | | |

Oh well that's about of a let down,was hoping for something a little bit better if that's the case,got to be honest I've never heard of that chain, hope it's a bit better than it sounds,also better than an entry unit I suppose.The more stores that are encouraged to come into the city the better,but we need a bit of quality as well.
Things are moving along, but it needs to gather momentum.
The area around Juniper Place is looking tidy now,they've done a great job on that place.Hope the works on The Kingsway kick starts that area too. | | | |

The council are very keen for this to happen, it's the English government and Swansea boy Alun Cairns letting us down once again | |

That s good.
This lagoon would make Swansea unique and could be a seminal move for other things
Some aren't keen on the idea | |

If the lagoon caused irreversible damage to Swansea Bay, one of our main selling points, will you backtrack on your support for it... like you did with the sale of the club to the Americans? |  | | |

If it proved it didn't would you have the grace to accept you ve been pretty obnoxious and sadly falling into line with those on here with agendas of their own
And quite wtf has our sale to do with this lagoon? Nothing .Its simply an excuse to bully me and you can feck right off | |

Unfortunately the only investment into Wales goes to Cardiff.
But hey ho Carwyn & his cronies will be voted in whatever they do. |

No wonder our city centre is dying on its arse. |  |

Furniture and garden goods would be better for the city then more clothes or mobile phone shops. It will be very interesting to see how this works out. Certainly some of the wooden furniture on the website looks interesting. It will certainly add variety to what is already there.
The problem with the BHS store is it is too big for the standard shops and too small for a major store. | | | |
