Your Questions: What's happening to Moorways and The Assembly Rooms?

You used Your Questions to ask: "What's happening to Moorways and the Assembly Rooms buildings?"
The Moorways swimming pool closed in January because of budget cuts when the city council decided it was too expensive to run.
The site will get a new 50m swimming pool and a proposed plan will look at other opportunities for the rest of the building, the council said.
Meanwhile, Derby Assembly Rooms, which opened in 1977, was badly damaged in a huge blaze that broke out in its roof car park in 2014.
The council's city centre masterplan for 2030 is for a performance venue to replace the Assembly Rooms but the cabinet has yet to make a final decision on what exactly this will be.
