The Cultural Building

Here is the conclusion of the project - better late than never

The Building

The Location -The building is located on the corner of Briggate and Kirkgate, currently ZARA and H&M, currently lacking any street presence along Kirkgate The location is at the heart of Briggate giving the building a good public face as well as making it highly accessible allowing frontage to be recreated along Kirkgate as was historically the case

The Goals - The building aims to give people access to a greater range of cultural experiences from special interests to international subcultures. The builiding will reinvent an historic type grain on the site bringing a 21st century twist to the yards of the past. The building will provide a showcase for local film and music talent

The Function - The building will a be a new entertainment venue for Leeds catering for a wide variety of interests in music & film by housing an independent cinema a music performance space and new retail space for specialist shops linking in with the buildings other functions such as film memorabilia and independent music stores
