This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specialising in structural and historical building works.

The project necessitates extensive "opening up works" to assess the Pavilion's true condition, paving the way for future restoration plans. Such initiatives could attract businesses capable of handling complex projects related to heritage conservation and structural reinforcement, aligning with the local government’s vision to revitalise the Torquay seafront, potentially opening further collaboration opportunities.

## Notice

The Torquay Pavilion is an iconic building in the centre of Torquay Sea front. It was erected in 1912, it contained a foyer, lounges and a cafe. It was subsequently adapted in 1938, 1960's & 1980. These adaptions included use as a theatre, ice rink and a shopping arcade, along with the introduction of adding a new mezzanine level. The building has been left vacant for over 10 years and has fallen into serious disrepair, with its deterioration accelerating due to continued water ingress from a multitude of building defects. This project is for the "opening up works", that will inform the full nature, scope & financial resources required to bring the Pavilion building back into a condition that will allow it to be used by a future tenant. The buildings true condition is currently unknown, it is for this reason that a full programme of opening up works is required to further inform & scope a wider restoration project.
