Battista Property's New Venue Proposal for Musselburgh

0:00Batista property, the folks behind Snooker spots like the ballroom and morning side in Meadowbank are eyeing a big change for Musclebirds high, street. They're pushing to transform the old empty B&M store into a Snooker, pool, and bowling hall, complete with indoor mini golf and seating for food, and drinks up front. These guys bring solid experience from running similar venues across Scotland, from Edinburgh to Glasgow, Perth and Dunfermlin. They argue the town center lacks fun leisure options, and this spot would draw crowds without messing up the neighborhood vibe. No homes sit next to the building, and it's right on a main bus route, making it perfect for foot traffic. The store has been empty since B&M bounced about a year ago, after kicking around as a wall worth for nearly 20 years before that. Planners are reviewing the proposal now, and you can check the full details on the council's planning portal online. This could breed fresh energy into high street, turning dead space into a go-to hangout that keeps the town buzzing.
