A retail expert has revealed what he thinks may come next on the site of the former Broadmarsh shopping centre - including an 'IKEA mini-store'.

In June of 2020 shopping centre giant intu collapsed into administration.
It sent shock-waves across much of the country, with 3,000 direct intu staff, and a further 102,000 employees - within the shopping centre stores themselves - fearing for their futures.
But perhaps no city was impacted on the same scale as Nottingham.
Both the Victoria Centre and Broadmarsh were operated by intu, the latter very much in the midst of a complete regeneration, meaning all work had to cease.
Nottingham City Council ended up losing millions over intu's failed vision and is now seeking to transform the site with the help of acclaimed urban designer Thomas Heatherwick.
A fresh vision for the newly-coined 'Greater Broad Marsh' site, fit for a post-Covid world, will be unveiled before the year is out.
Until then, one can only speculate what the Wembley Stadium-sized plot may become - including what it may offer in terms of retail.
Independent retail analyst Nelson Blackley said whatever comes next needed to complement what's already in the city.
And he would like to see new brands open - Mr Blackley suggesting an 'IKEA mini-store' at the site.

Said Mr Blackley: 'Most city centre developments across the UK over the past decade appear to have involved some combination of luxury apartments, student accommodation, high quality office accommodation and leisure and retail space.
'Whatever retail offer emerges across the redeveloped Greater Broadmarsh site, it needs to complement, and enhance, what already exists in the city - rather than duplicate it.
'The disastrous experience of Nottingham having two shopping centres for much of the past 50 years, each offering a similar selection of mid-market brands, and all the problems this caused, should hopefully ensure this lesson has been learnt.
'I would suggest this means an absence of those major national and mainstream retail brands already well represented in Nottingham but perhaps looking to include some of the retail brands that, to date, have not opened in the city.
'For example, Supreme, Apple, Peloton or perhaps even an IKEA mini-store.'
Nottinghamshire does indeed have a giant, and popular, IKEA at the Giltbrook Retail Park.
But the Swedish furnishings giant has started replacing the dying breed of high street clothing shops elsewhere.
In London, for example, IKEA is taking over Topshop's former flagship outlet in Oxford Street, marking a shift in retail offer in the capital amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Mr Blackley added whatever does emerge must address the 'global environment and the climate emergency and so reflect the ambitious plans of Nottingham to be the first carbon neutral city in the UK by 2028'.
This includes the need for green space, a highly requested feature during the 'Big Conversation', a consultation inviting public discussion on the redevelopment, as well as a 'flexible and sensible' mix of buildings.
Another very intriguing suggestion comes from John Rhodes, the vice-president of Nottingham Civic Society.

'It occurs to me that Wilko and a number of small shops were situated mainly under Collin Street,' he said.
'I believe there are about 400 to 500 [square] metres underground. This underused area could be brought into viable use for high-intensity vertical farming.
'The fresh produce could be used to supply local restaurants and grocery stores. If this idea is to gain traction, it is important to consider servicing access at an early stage.
'An added potential benefit is the prospect of incorporating some of the underused underground caves alongside the vertical farming exercise which could deliver an intriguing tourist attraction, unique to Nottingham.
'It is good to hear that the Government has allocated £1.8 billion to promote housing on brownfield sites. I envisage that incorporating high-density vertical farming under a recently introduced traffic-free area in Collin Street could only massively enhance the bid for funding the Broad Marsh development ambitions.'
Conservationists have also said the transformation of the old shopping centre should reflect the medieval 'origins of the city', the area on the approach to the oldest part of Nottingham, with a history dating back to the Anglo-Saxon era, when the city was known as Snottengaham.
The unveiling of the new Greater Broad Marsh vision is expected in December.
