Belfast demolition row


Heritage campaigners have urged Northern Ireland Environment Minister Alex Attwood to intervene to save a landmark Victorian building in Belfast city centre facing demolition.

Last week Belfast City Council’s town planning committee backed a decision to replace the Athletic Stores building on Queen Street with a multi-storey apartment complex.

The Ulster Architectural Heritage Society (UAHS) is now threatening to challenge the planning authorities in court over the future of the 19th century property.
