It has begun to be achieved through renewal of the town centre, which consists of a derelict office in Princes Street which has been altered into two modern shops. The former Jack Miller's Hotel building at 78 Princes Street was renovated in the the autumn of 2010, and has been home to several businesses. This includes an art gallery and artists' studio space referred to as Phoenix, as well as a graphic design studio. The old pumphouse has been altered into an Italian restaurant. Ardrossan is also home to some architecturally famous buildings, including Barony St. John's Church and St. Peter-in-Chains Roman Catholic Church. St Peter's is a more contemporary building in an all-brick, Swedish style, dating from the middle of the 19th century. Both buildings are positioned on the South Crescent, which overlooks South Beach and Irvine Bay. The crescent is lined by large sized villas dating from the 19th century, many of which have been transformed into many residences.
