There are fears that 'The Junction' retail park's proposed expansion in Antrim could kill off the town centre.
The maul is in line for a thirty million pound expansion, with twenty new stores and five hundred new jobs.
'Antrim Towns Development Company' is holding a meeting at the Old Courthouse Theatre this Thursday at 5.30pm.
It will respond to 'The Junction' proposals from the Lotus Group, and gauge untapped potential in Antrim town centre.
Councillor Nigel Kells welcomes the new development, but says Council is also bolstering the town centre:
