The Gima was actually the site or part of it where the swimming pool was that was attached to the hotel facing which was called the Corner Karacan hotel.

You had to leave your hotel next to the Taj Mahal restaurant and cross the road at the traffic lights with towels in hand then climb the steps above a little trinket shop to get to the pool which was elevated above ground level.

When this was demolished to make way for the Gima it was announced that the next part of the re-development would be the demolition of the hotel to make way for a new shopping centre though after the shock news of the no planning permission for the Gima (which now looks to have a stay of execution) I wonder was planning permission obtained for the Karacan site.
