New future for Port Talbot’s decaying Plaza cinema as plans for community facility are approved

posted in: All News, Cannes, UK | 0

The conversion of Port Talbot’s Plaza cinema is a major step closer after the local authority’s planning committee approved development plans for a mixed-use community facility with cafe, hall, gym and multi-purpose rooms.

The building, which is Grade II listed, has been empty for 20 years and is in a dilapidated state with a large hole in the roof and vegetation growing within the building.

But now, in a £6.5m project led by Neath Port Talbot Council, the art deco building is to be transformed into a new community and business hub operated by YMCA Port Talbot on a 25-year lease.
