I notice Mostyn estates and Opus have missed their summer start on the Tudno Castle hotel,no chance of this one being ready on time either.

Walking past today I was amazed how rapidly the building is deteriorating still further. I can't see anything of the original being salvaged the cracks in the walls look so ominous. My bet it will end up a total demolition job. Maybe that's why there is a delay ?

It is in a very bad way, to be sure. Having said that, the Clarence wasn't in that much better condition and the builders have done a fantastic job on that.

Wasn't somebody killed in a building collapse in an east coast resort recently. Skegness maybe ? That was a similar situation to the  Tudno Castle. Some stormy weather or even extreme cold and who knows what might happen here. I think I'll walk on the other side of the road.

All looks too familiar for comfort

I noticed, last time I went past apart from the cracks ....The main end wall,  at the back was bowed, I'm no builder but a bowed end wall seemed serious, I have my doubts....
I had a look at some of the interior photos, ....I would have liked to see it, in it's day.

Certainly a good idea to steer clear on very cold or stormy days, I'd have thought. The Boulevard building is another one to be careful of when walking past in similar conditions.

Fortunately, you have. It's just the restaurant units that are to let.

Broadway Boulevard has been reduced to £500,000 now (was £750,000). Any takers?

Hi Dave, where did you see that? I can only find information about it being available for lease. Cheers.

Personally, I think £250,000 would be a better price, given its rapidly deteriorating condition. Thieves have broken into the building around the back in recent months, so who knows what condition it is in inside.

Cheers Dave. Will have word with administrators - read it in Weekly News on Thursday.

Llandudno and Wrexham nightclubs sale prices slashed to tempt buyers.
David Sutcliffe, from leisure property specialist Fleurets, which is handling the sales, said: “These two properties have recently been sold onto new owners as part of a wider portfolio sale.
“The new owners are keen to dispose of these non-core assets and with a view to obtaining a quick sale the price has been reduced so as to attract some further interest.

“There is a the possibility that unless a quick sale is agreed these properties, together with other non-core assets, could be placed in an auction.”

A DILAPIDATED former youth club close to Llandudno town centre has been bought by a landowner who says it’s keen to redevelop the site.
The former Youth Centre building in Trinity Avenue, was originally used as a Cottage Hospital before the construction of the present Llandudno Hospital.
But since the Conwy County Council run Youth Centre closed several years ago and was put up for sale, the condition of the building has deteriorated and it has been subjected to vandalism.
Last week Mostyn Estates purchased the property from the council,with the intention, says managing director Edward Hiller, of replacing it with residential accommodation, designed to fit with surrounding properties.

I read that article in the NWWN last week and was a bit surprised to see that Mostyn Estates were going to redevelop the site, especially seeing the state that they have let the Castle Hotel get into.      I just hope that it hasn't been sold to Mostyn Estates at a knock down price as the CCBC could have done something similar with a genuine developer.

Is it a good thing that Broadway Boulavard is going to auction.

December is here and no sign of Opus starting on the Tudno Castle,looks like 2017 finish at the earliest.

I suspect you may be right, Wrex, sadly.
