We
received over 150 Gosport address verified opinions on whether Gosport
residents were for or against a cinema being built at Royal Clarence
Yard.
92%
of respondents were
FOR.
Some
more detailed comments are listed below:
"
I
THINK IT WOULD BE A GREAT IDEA..."
"What
differece does it make on the number of houses built in Clarence
yard? Surley the cinama will be marketed and used by Gosport resedents
as a whole, the surrounding areas plus visitors . Probebly well
over 100,000 people in all so why haggle over the small number of
homes in the yard itself????"
"I
would visit it every week"
"ALTHOUGH
IT'S NICE GOING ACROSS THE FERRY TO GUNWHARF QUAYS, IT WOULD BE
GOOD NOT TO ON A COLD WINTER'S NIGHT! PLUS I ALWAYS MANAGE TO SPEND
MONEY IN THE SHOPS OVER THERE. WE DON'T HAVE ANY IN GOSPORT, ALTHOUGH
THAT WOULD BE GOOD TOO!! ANYONE KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENED TO THE PLANS
FOR THE WATERFRONT - SHOPS, RESTAURANTS, TRAM ETC??"
"FOR
in favour. How can 82,000 people be without a cinema? We used to
have three! We don't always want to trapse over to Gun Wharf or
Port Soolent. It will be the making of the restauranats which I
presume will be close by?"
"I
am FOR a new cinema opening at Royal Clarence Yard, hopefully this
will bring some life back to the town. We need more restaraunts
etc.etc."
"Gosport
needs all the leisure facilities it can get. "
"We
should have rebuilt the Ritz after its demolition"
"For,
more places for local people to work and attend within the borough
must be good news for Gosport."
"I
am all FOR a new cinema PLUS restaurants and 'classy' bars to get
Gosport going again! We were promised a new cinema when the Ritz
went, so we should have one!"
"To
create jobs, dont turn this area into a play area for the commuters
who in the long term will not contribute to the gosport community,
sell up and run. face it no one can afford to buy if they do not
work and whilst this type of employment is not of a high pay scale
it will create the type of easy employment needed by or ever growing
student population"
"I
am all for a cinema and development of shops equal to that of Gunwharf
if it would bring prosperity to Gosport. We need it to compete with
Fareham, Portsmouth etc.,"
"I
think a cinema in Gosport is a great idea, particularly one that
shows more 'arthouse' films. I love Gosport and Portsmouth, but
sometimes feel we are in a bit of a cultural wilderness. Only the
mainstream seems readily available!"
"For.
But to be successful, I feel it must be part of a commercial infrastructure
comprising shops, eating places and some other forms of attraction
for local residents which will draw them to RCY rather that Port
Solent or Gunwharf."
"Currently
Gosport has little to offer its residents other than providing free
parking for the many local patrons of the restaurants and cinema
at Gunwharf."
"It
was a great shame that the Ritz was turned into yet another food
shop but if we can`t have the Ritz back then let`s give the new
one a go.."
"For.
But would like it to be an adaptable site so that other activities
could be performed there. Such as Jazz or Brass Band Concerts."
"We
don't always want to go over to Gun Wharf to see a film!"
"For
every visit we make to Warners in Gunworf we would make four visits
to the cinima if there was one in Gosport."
