A firm wanting to demolish the 50-year-old shopping centre in the heart of South Bristol and build a new ‘quarter’ of more than 800 flats in its place have said they are reviewing the decision to refuse the permission.
The bid to knock down the Broadwalk Shopping Centre, the car park, bingo hall and snooker hall on the Wells Road in Knowle last month, and now the shopping centre itself faces an uncertain future.
The developers Redcatch Development Partnership will now be poring over the reasons given to refuse the scheme by planners - which will be cemented in place on Wednesday. The developers, a joint partnership between three companies called BBS, Melburg and Galliard Homes, face three choices for the future of the shopping centre.
