New art gallery proposed for Oxford Street

Westminster's Labour councillors are proposing to turn Oxford Street's vacant Debenhams store into a gallery space.

The 'Oxofrd Street Art House' would include creative workspaces, five floors of galleries, a rooftop garden, cafes and a new home for Marylebone public library.

The flagship Debenhams store closed during the pandemic and there is no commercial interest in the 400,000 square foot building, TimeOut reports.
