Episode Details

Edinburgh’s city council is eyeing a compulsory purchase order for the iconic Debenhams site on Princes Street after a devastating fire gutted the building — now split between two owners, delaying any rebuild. With safety costs looming and redevelopment stalled, officials are weighing drastic action to prevent the landmark from becoming a vacant lot. The fire’s cause remains unknown, while one owner has stayed silent on future plans. Princes Street will reopen this weekend after seven weeks of closure — but the city’s recovery isn’t over.
