WORK has now fully completed on Time Square.
The flagship development is now free of construction workers.
It is five years since the old buildings, once home to B&M, Comet and the Time Square pub, were pulled down.
Now the site is home to the new Warrington Market, Cineworld and The Botanist.
Gravity trampoline park is due to open in the temporary market later this autumn while Dream Desserts has also signed for a unit on Dolmans Lane.
While the council is in talks for two more units, a restaurant and a shop.
Here, we take a look at how the site has developed over the past five years.
