Future Plans
The building that sits adjacent to the GoMA went under development and refurbishment to accommodate a new retail unit following Borders Group closure. Rumours insinuated that AllSaints and Abercrombie & Fitch both looked into a lease for the building - dividing it into two retail units to accommodate both stores. The window covers were unveiled to reveal suspended rows of vintage sewing machines, white painted exposed brickwork and reclaimed furniture. These interior details have been found in previous AllSaints branches, and are very fitting with the brand. AllSaints' Ingram Street and Mitchell Lane branches both closed and moved into the Buchanan Street building in May 2010, leaving the upper floors vacant.
The rear of the building is currently being fitted out as a new Zizzi Restaurant with the entrance opening onto Royal Exchange Square opening February 11th as the flagship Scottish Zizzi branch.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or plans:
“The moment the doctrine of the immortality is separately taught, man is already fallen. In the flowing of love, in the adoration of humility, there is no question of continuance. No inspired man ever asks this question, or condescends to these evidences. For the soul is true to itself, and the man in whom it is shed abroad cannot wander from the present, which is infinite, to a future which would be finite.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“One who winks the eyes plans perverse things; one who compresses the lips brings evil to pass.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 16:30.
