One of Arbroath’s historic hotels could finally disappear under an office and flats conversion plan for the prominent building.
The former Waverley on the corner of Catherine Street has lain empty for nearly 15 years.
It last welcomed revellers as the Odin nightclub.
But the premises shut in 2008 and Angus licensing chiefs later ordered the owners to relinquish their alcohol licence.
The garish interior of the former disco is still in place.
Now a local developer has lodged plans with the council to bring the prominent corner property back into use.
The 4,500 sq. ft building stretches over four floors.
It went under the hammer in February this year with a property auction guide price of £100,000.
Flat plan for old nightclub
The West Port building sits directly opposite Arbroath railway station.
At one time the pub occupied the ground floor and the nightclub operated on the first floor before it was closed.
Montrose-based Thyme Properties say their plans will deliver office space and employment in Arbroath while retaining the original street scene.
The basement would be used for storage and the ground floor as office space for a letting agent.
On the first floor, there would be two one-bedroom flats.
The second floor would be converted to a three-bedroom flat, with an outside patio area.
Angus Council has set a determination deadline of early January for the application.
