New-look Marischal Square for Aberdeen city centre unveiled The plan is to transform the site of the former council headquarters Images of the planned new look for the site of the former Aberdeen City Council headquarters have been unveiled. Muse Developments was chosen to deliver the new £107m shape of the St Nicholas House area. Demolition work is ongoing, and the aim is for the scheme - including pedestrianisation of part of Broad Street - to be completed in 2017. The plans are being lodged later this month. The vision includes offices with 250 car spaces, civic spaces, a 125-bed four-star hotel, and restaurants. The full Marischal Square plans and images can be seen at Aberdeen Art Gallery on Friday and Saturday, then in the reception area of Marischal College from Monday until 17 April. In 2001, more than 1,000 council staff vacated the 14-storey St Nicholas House building, erected in 1968, for the newly-refurbished Marischal College building.
