I've seen a few mentions of Brighton Lanes style developments in this area. The older residents on here will remember that Dover used to have it's own lanes area between the Market Square and Snargate St - pubs, shops, workshops etc, and all very historic. In a massive act of vandalism it all got knocked down in the early 70s for the York St dual carriageway to take traffic from the A20 via Folkestone Road to the docks (that was then the main route for dock traffic) without going through the town centre - and it's now defunct as a main route and just used for local traffic.
Another thread on here talks about bringing decent entertainers to the town - the town hall isn't ideal so how about a new theatre complex? It doesn't have to be large like The Marlowe or Leas Cliff, the Horsebridge Centre at Whitstable is small, versatile and successful even on a restricted site.
