A rooftop bar and restaurant is set to take centre stage in Newcastle city centre in plans for a shopping mall owned by the billionaire Reuben Brothers.
The real estate entrepreneurs snapped up Monument Mall in 2021 through their property investment company Motcomb Estates for a reported £37m – the first of a number of high profile property purchases in the city. Now tenant Sports Direct is set to move out of the building, paving the way for changes to the building.
Consultants enlisted by the entrepreneurs are on the hunt for an operator to take on the luxury shopping arcade’s rooftop area to create a large leisure area with a bar and restaurant overlooking the Monument and Northumberland Street.
