If you have been in Ashton Lane, in the West End of Glasgow, you know that it is possible to pack a lot of entertainment value into a small space. We have a suitable space in the heart of town ready for redevelopment. It is in the centre of town in the block between Sinclair Street, East Princes Street, Maitland Street and East Clyde Street. The space could accomodate a two screen cinema, several restaurants catering to a spectrum of tastes and an outdoor cafe and bar area. This entertainment complex could be accessed by an arcade from Sinclair Street as well as the more obvious route from Maitland Street.

At present, most of the entertainment pounds of Helensburgh residents are spent outside town. An entertainment complex of this type could retain some of this money as well as attracting visitors who wouldn't otherwise visit the town. Investment in this sort of feature would have a catalytic effect on other businesses in the town as well as providing improved amenities for current residents.
