Future
Recently it was announced that developers have approached Derry City Council with the intention of developing a new Foyleside block which would include an extra 235,000 square footage of retail space, as well as a nine screen cinema and 67,000-square-foot (6,200 m2) of office space. This has the potential to create 500 construction jobs and 300 permanent jobs if allowed to proceed. This development would cost in the region of £100 million. Further to this Minister for Regional Development, Conor Murphy has hinted that he would welcome any plans for the relocation of the current train station to the east bank of the Peace Bridge, which officially opened on Saturday 25th June 2011 This would mean that travellers by rail coming to the city would be linked quick ly with Foyleside and the surrounding area.
