Tables turn on Cork record shop

THE former HMV store at the old Pavilion cinema building on Cork city’s St Patrick’s Street has been sold off-market by IPUT.

It made an unconfirmed c€4 million, in a deal that closes just as another €1.1m prime retail investment offer comes to market in Cork city centre, let to Fat Face, on Princes Street.

The investment deal at the attractive 80-82 St Patrick’s Street (occupied by Golden Discs) is understood to have seen the converted cinema/retail unit purchased by a family fund, and was done off-market by Edmund Douglas of Lambert Smith Hampton acting for the undisclosed purchasers.It’s one of a number of Cork retail properties being disposed of by IPUT in recent years.
