AN IDEA to move the Cardiff Story museum to the Bay has been revealed as part of plans to boost the economic potential of the city.
\nThe idea is detailed in a Cardiff Council paper outlining potential new economic directions for the area.
\nCalled \u2018Building More and Better Jobs\u2019, the paper sets out a\u00a0 three-month public consultation and lists a range of possible projects around the region that the council could take up.
\n\u201cWe must continue to drive forward investment in our city, and we must put in place the building blocks to fulfil our city\u2019s potential. We know that this potential is vast,\u201d it says.
\nA plan is outlined for each region of Cardiff, including making Cardiff East the industry centre of the city, boosting business investment in the city centre region.
\nOne project includes moving the Cardiff Story Museum from the city centre to Cardiff Bay to bolster the council\u2019s proposal to make Cardiff Bay the leisure district in the region.
\nCabinet Member for Investment and Development at Cardiff Council, Coun Russel Goodway said: \u201cWe will work with partners to explore options for a new attraction at the Graving Docks, including the potential for a contemporary art gallery, a science experience venue, and a new venue for the Cardiff Story.
\n“These are simply ideas that we would look to explore based on the outcomes of the consultation.\u201d
