Malmaison Newcastle - 322/365
Malmaison Newcastle (Architect, Gordon Farrier) is a striking redevelopment of an old building on the city's Quayside. The Grade II listed Malmaison Hotel, formerly a Co-operative Wholesale Society warehouse, was once a storage facility for grain and cotton from the bustling river trade of the Tyne. I can't find any more details, so please let me know if you do!
From a contemporary Press Release: "26 May 1994 - After a £300,000 refurbishment by Amec Building, this former Cooperative Wholesale Society warehouse on Newcastle-Upon-Tyne's Quayside is to reopen.The entire development will be worth almost £200 million and is being put together by Tyne and Wear Development Corporation, which has spent £30 million on infrastructure.
