Mare Street will have its very own four-screen Picturehouse from this autumn.
City Screen, an independent cinema chain, has been awarded the lease for the former Ocean building, which opened as a music venue in 2001 at a cost of £23 million but went into administration in 2004.
The building was previously a cinema.
