The plans also included a two-storey extension and a musical 'walk of fame' in Davies Street, the narrow cobbled street alongside it.
At the heart of the city's music industry, it was known as a venue for talent spotting and played a key role in nurturing the careers of some of the region’s best-known bands.
Imperial Warehouses, as the building was previously known, was constructed in 1878 to store fruit and vegetables. It also featured in the 2001 blockbuster film 51 State.
An online auction is expected to be held over two days from October 12, according to the Rightmove listing.
The building was previously up for sale in July 2020.
