I just saw a post on another thread by cheekymonkey and it remided me I was going to post the other day but forgot.
It seems the Gima shopping centre was built without planning permission so it looks like it is due to be demolished after all the hard work that went into it.
The hotel and Taj Mahal curry house facing has come down and there should be a new shopping centre built on there also so I hope they got their planning permission for that one.

omg i cant believe that i love that shopping centre,seems such a shame as you said the amount of work gone into it,when we were there they had a presentation for its birthday,i think it was its first year,looks like back to tansas
My missus will go mad,she spent more time in the Gima buying cakes and pizza's than I did drinking in the Captains Bar just down the road.It was the only thing that kept her happy. 
cant believe its gone, what a waste of money i loved the cheap supermarket really good for trainers and odd and bods really cheap, cant wait to go back in july
sorry to ask but which centre was the Gima? Anna xxxx
hi is it the same as the point centre some people call it the gima centre opp tah mahal stef
The children loved the amusement arcade above it as well,kept them amused for house
i'm more peeved about the taj mahal - we were looking forward to going there for my birthday this year!!!!
its a bummer about the gima - right over the road from where we are staying
did nobody in authority realise about the planning permission when they were actually building it??
seems like it not just the uk which have dorks in high places

From what I have been told of the rumour circulating Marmaris it had something to do with the ex mayor of Marmaris.

The point centre has been closed because it did not have permison to build the roof floor. it is not scheduled to be knocked down for a while yet and protests are happening outside point centre. for us locals its a huge blow, but there is still hope it can be saved yet. only time will tell.
Sorry to sound really thick but is the Gima in Marmaris?
Collette,
Yes it is in Marmaris. A splendid new building built more or less at a cross roads where the main road runs through Marmaris. If you knew where the Bungee used to be a couple of years ago, it was on that side street but at the main road.

There was a meeting between Point Centre and Municipality. we are waiting news now. time will show what gonna happen.
lets keep our fingers crossed for it to stay - it would such a wrench for the whole community there if they did pull it down
I wasn't doubting what John and Sarah were saying. I also have close connections with Marmaris, but had not heard anything about it and was interested in where they heard about it.
Seems a shame, but like you said - it is Turkey!!! you never know whats going to happen!!!!!!!
