The Stack boxpark in Newcastle is to close later this spring to make way for a major office development.
The food, drink and shopping hub was set up on the former Odeon site on Newcastle’s Pilgrim Street opened four years ago, using shipping containers to create a vibrant hub that aimed to bring new retail and leisure operators to the city centre. But plans for a major office block on the site that will house 9,000 staff from HMRC mean that Stack will close in May.
Staff and companies on the site were told of the closure this morning and the company behind the site has told of its sadness at having to close.
