Cinema operator Parkway Entertainment has signed the lease to deliver its new five-screen venue in Grimsby town centre, with the construction contractor selected.
The two significant developments for the Freshney Place scheme follow the £20 million award from the Government’s Levelling Up Fund, revealed in this week’s Spring Budget.
Morgan Sindall has been selected from a national framework of companies, and will work alongside North East Lincolnshire Council to finalise build plans over the coming months. Parkway, with its flagship cinema and regional operating base in neighbouring Cleethorpes, was revealed as the brand behind it in July last year, with national chain Cineworld having lost interest since its initial involvement.
