Café Dreams Derailed by Council Works | Aberdeen News
Description
Aberdeen’s £20 million Castlegate makeover is set to transform the city into a café haven—but for local café owner Soran Xurmale, the construction chaos is crushing his dream. Just a year after opening his art and coffee space, ongoing work has blocked access, slashed foot traffic, and forced him to cut breakfast service and sell his car and camera gear to pay rent. Despite his deep love for Aberdeen and his determination to keep going, Soran fears his gallery may close before the revitalization even begins. He’s reached out to the council for help—so far, no luck. But with a heart for local artists and community, he’s refusing to quit.
