The delivery of the a new 'green heart' in the centre of Nottingham where the Broadmarsh Centre once stood is expected to arrive at a similar time to the opening of the new central library in 2023, according to a councillor. The delayed fit-out of the new library will now commence and will cost £10.5m.
A new central library, replacing the Angel Row site which has been sold, forms part of the overall regeneration of the south of the city and Greater Broad Marsh zone. The fit-out was delayed and has left the city without a central library since the beginning of the pandemic.
Executive councillors at the city council have now however confirmed the fit-out will commence and the library will open in 2023. And it is now understood a small part of the redevelopment of the former Broadmarsh Shopping Centre is expected to be finished at a similar time to the library.
