DEVELOPERS REVEAL BID TO TRANSFORM 'LANDMARK' BUILDING IN TOWN CENTRE
A 'LANDMARK' building could be transformed into a hotel.
The 15-storey Civic Centre tower in Oldham town centre could soon host more than 120 visitors, if plans submitted to the council are approved.
A change of use application by developers Muse would see the former council office block turned into 126 rooms, with service areas, a restaurant and conference hall in the basement, ground and first floors.
The brutalist-style block currently divides public opinion, with some describing it as an 'eyesore that should be demolished' while others call it an 'important landmark and wayfinder.'
