The empty 1800`s Tay Hotel is now a Category B Listed Building located in Dundee, UK


The Tay Hotel is a large Listed Building strategically located within Dundee City Centre The property was originally built as a hotel and was in such use until the 1990’s, when it was used briefly as a hostel. The building has been vacant for a number of years, but offers an excellent opportunity for redevelopment, directly adjacent to the City’s Waterfront Masterplan area. The redevelopment of this site will be based on the reuse of the existing Category B Listed Building which forms an important landmark within the Central Conservation Area. The building is Category B Listed, and lies within the Dundee Central Conservation Area. It was constructed in 1889, originally as a hotel - formerly Mathers Hotel and latterly the Tay Hotel. The building is five storey with double attic and has a convex plan to Whitehall Crescent and basement to Dock Street, on a prominent gusset site. The building incorporates a former nightclub and bar to Dock Street which form part of this development brief site. The Whitehall Street elevation has a number of retail/commercial units to ground floor level which are in separate ownership from the Hotel, and are therefore out with the scope of this brief. The building has significant value, both architecturally as a separate entity, and in terms of its town-scape value within the context of the Central Conservation Area.
