A feasibility study on the proposal which includes a 750-space multi-storey car park, 69-bedroom Landmark hotel and residential accommodation with retail space on the ground floor has been carried out. This is a detailed analysis that considers all of the critical aspects of a proposed project in order to determine the likelihood of it succeeding.
