An ambitious project to bring Hull city centre’s landmark former Burton building back to its original glory has begun.
Major restoration work on the landmark, Grade II-listed building will see the crumbling granite façade and art deco windows returned to their 1930s grandeur. The £2.4 million restoration project is expected to be complete towards the end of the year.
The 11,000 sq ft building’s modern shop fronts will be replaced with new frontages in keeping with the original style and design. The ground floor is being renovated to enable its use as a restaurant or retail outlet, with flexible space available on the upper floors.
