[2] The Eastgate shopping centre in Inverness has been taken over by UK-owned real estate company, Savills plc.
At midday each day a longer display takes place where all of the tunes are played, all the windows are opened and the rest of the diorama also operates.
[5] The first application sent to Highland Council by the centre developers Royal & SunAlliance, dated 10 March 1997, was to warrant a much needed extension to the Eastgate.
The listed building was moved brick-by-brick to the other side of Falcon Square, and now hosts Pizza Express and Laura Ashley.
This new development included two bridge walkways connecting the new phase with the existing shopping centre, complete with Debenhams as the anchor store, and a new food court.
As part of this refurbishment, Falcon Square has been rebuilt as a plaza on which a new mercat cross has been erected, and which has replaced the Town House end of the High Street as a gathering point for civic events.
Throughout the centre, there are food options such as Subway, Burger King, Costa Coffee, Starbucks, and Pizza Express.
