Much nicer since the refit. Just needs some new tenants for the empty units. Nice to see an Arts Centre in there though. Worth a visit if only to see that!

Yet again the toilets are closed and the Q for baby change is ridiculous. where are people supposed to take their children desperate for the toilet, my daughter has now wet her self, she now doesn't want to go anywhere and we've had to get new clothes before she will move... all because supposedly male and female toilets have been vandalised.... Disgusting ....

Trying hard but the shops in the main shopping street do not entice shoppers unfortunately. The council has spent a fortune refurbishing the centre too. Its sad to see a once thriving town looking like Gravesend does now.
