Description: | 19th October 1989.
Image shows work in progress in the County Arcade when the Victoria Quarter was being developed as an upmarket shopping centre. This is the former entrance to the Mecca Locarno Ballroom which was here between 1938 and 1969. The architecture dates from between 1898 and 1903 and is by theatre architect Frank Matcham for the Leeds Estates Company. On the left-hand side, at number 24 County Arcade is Greenwoods Menswear store. The shop front of number 26 is in the process of renovation. These units are now occupied by Reiss, a store retaling menswear and womenswear. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Victoria Quarter Matcham County Arcade Mecca | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
