Seems the school and the people around didn't have a chance to block the development... the building currently sat in the location needs to come down as its a eye sore, i agree with the school and people, it's wrong for the area.

Seen this on Skyscrapercity:
Walked past the former BHS store tonight and signs are in window confirming Sports Direct are taking it over. Also to note the signs say USC are moving in there aswell.
Another 2 empty shops in the bridges.........

Not good then! Would have hoped for something better to boost that area. Hopefully something good will take the Sports direct store in the Bridges. USC is ok though.
Next have already took the Metrocentre one, will be their biggest ever store I think! Newcastle have nothing yet though.

Yeah I'm just not sure what it could be? New Look seem to be expanding their stores so that would make sense with New Look Men opening in their current store as it is quite small isn't it?

I hope so, its all mainly women clothes shops in the city centre.
NEXT is building on the old Crowtree leisure centre site so rules them out........New Look should go from the area and they should move in the bridges.
The Lonsdale boxing can move else where too (which is above)

Ah Next is moving too, hopefully you can get a decent retailer in that store too. Would be good to have something that isn't the same old usual, like Urban Outfitters or something like that.
New Look would be my guess anyway for the Sports Direct in the bridges.

Imagine it will be the same set up as the Metrocentre Retail Park store where it's two in one. Hopefully there will be a fair bit of USC in this store then as the current USC store in the Bridges isn't that big.
It's not great that it will mean two empty units in the Bridges but at the same time it means there won't be a big empty shop on High Street West anymore, looks bad enough having all those empty units there.
Can't see Sunderland getting owt much different and exciting in terms of stuff like clothing retailers, was shocked they got Flannels. Went in there fairly recently, don't think I have ever felt more uncomfortable walking round a shop than in there as you've got security in suits around the shop and then there is the prices, jeez! Something like Urban Outfitters would be nice but can't see it ever happening.

16/01562/FUL | Erection of a public house and restaurant facility (use class A4) with associated car parking, landscaping and access. | Former Dewhirst Factory Pennywell Industrial Estate Sunderland SR4 9EP

-------------------
First building on the VAUX site is due to completed by the end of 2017
Vaux Phase 1
The on site start date for the Vaux Phase 1 main works has been revised from June 2016 to October 2016 due to finalisation of planning requirements and legal agreements, unforeseen ground contamination, and additional archaeology work. The revised start date has resulted in an estimate of £8.397m being re-profiled into 2017/2018. The additional site investigations have reduced the risk to the project, providing greater certainty to delivering within timescales and cost. The works therefore are still scheduled to complete end of 2017 with no funding implications.

Possible new development for Rainton Meadows Arena.
This involves construction of a new Aldi store.
The owners have been trying to redevelop that land for years without success. At one point a Travelodge was on the cards.

Sunderland’s retail offer is to receive a boost – thanks to Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley/ The city’s former BHS store is set to reopen in January under Mr Ashley’s Sports Direct umbrella.
The store is due to open at the end of January.

Yup so moving out of the bridges to save on rent, wouldn't be surprised if the current sports direct unit is snapped up quick, as its quite big.

Planning app in to complete the Dewhurst site redevelopment:
16/01830/FUL | Demolition of vacant factory shop and lean to. External alterations to existing industrial/warehouse building and alterations to car park, to facilitate subdivision and conversion to 4 no. trade warehouse units. | Former Dewhirst Factory Pennywell Industrial Estate Sunderland SR4 9EP
Looks like 4 more units on top of the proposed 3 already (KFC, Aldi and the Pub)
I could become a decent area for shops.. Bet they'll be a Greggs, B&M store haha

I'd be sad to see the Rainton Meadows Arena go. Had some awesome nights in there over the years, and to be honest, the refurbishment has done it a lot of good. They seem to get good crowds in with boxing and such.

Sunderland’s Vaux site development is being showcased to potential Chinese investors today. The site is included in a portfolio of projects across the Government’s ‘Northern Powerhouse’ area, which sets out details of 13 large-scale property and infrastructure development projects - each worth more than £100million - in an attempt to attract Chinese investors.
The Vaux site The Vaux site Chancellor Philip Hammond is meeting a Chinese delegation headed by vice premier Ma Kai in London for the eighth UK-China Economic and Financial Dialogue as ministers seek to underline that Britain remains “open for business” following the vote for Brexit. Mr Hammond said China and the UK remained “natural partners”. “The mutual benefits are clear,” he said.

Also wonder what store it will be in Newcastle? Kingston Park or something probably.
