I honestly can't imagine what other use it could be put to." But Hayley Smith from Portadown has some ideas. "It's not exactly a pretty building but what could go in it? Other businesses maybe, small holdings? Perhaps a hotel or a leisure complex. I'd like to see something new in there." And that's the challenge. Once the workers leave Marlborough House, the Department of Finance will offer it to other public bodies. If they're not interested it'll go on the open market.
