The top floor was closed off in 2000, leaving the units on the ground floor occupied by a number of independent retailers. In 2008, the centre was the focus of a campaign by the Leicester Civic Society to reopen it.^[1]

In 2010, plans were announced to reopen the top floors.^[2] Later plans in 2019 were announced to convert two floors of the building into office space.^[3]
