Red carpet leading to the Cafe Royal?

I heard there'll be an apple store in one of the retail units. Think there were plans for a hotel above.

[Cocaine&Caviar]

Really any need for them to remove the whole of the buildings then?

"Princes Street is set to be the site of an Apple Store thanks to a new building development opposite to the Balmoral Hotel.

The development, which is expected to last 18 months and cost £16 million, will also see the opening of a new 140-room Motel One hotel above the Apple Store."
