LEEDS CITY OF THE FUTURE | Ten space age modern architecture projects
#LeedsArchitecture #ModernArchitecture #LeedsBuildingBoom
In this video I highlight ten examples of futuristic modern architecture in Leeds. New development in Leeds has propelled the city into the top 5 UK shopping destinations. I contrast the superb Trinity Leeds shopping centre with the Arndale Centre in Manchester. Leeds University and Leeds Beckett University each have a campus in the north of the city centre. This almost exclusively modern area seems to me to be the quintessentially modern city. There is a futurist, space-age theme running throughout the video. It's slightly tongue-in-cheek, but most will agree, the buildings all have something of the future about them.

INSIDE ARCHITECTURE: Leeds Corn Exchange
'The Leeds Corn Exchange is a Victorian building in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, which was designed by Cuthbert Brodrick and completed in 1864.
Designed by Cuthbert Brodrick, a Hull architect best known for Leeds Town Hall, this Grade I listed structure was completed in 1862 and opened on 28 July 1863. The dome design was based on that of the Bourse de commerce of Paris by François-Joseph Bélanger and François Brunet, completed in 1811. Leeds Corn Exchange is now just one of three corn exchanges in the country which operates in its traditional capacity as a centre for trade, albeit no longer for trading in corn.
After closing, its condition deteriorated. Early proposals for regeneration included turning it into a concert hall similar to the Royal Albert Hall.
In 1985, Speciality Shop...

Can Architecture Help You Heal?
There is growing evidence that the spaces we inhabit have an impact on our well-being. And this has been the thinking behind the creation of cancer care centers in the UK. Maggie's Centers, a charity which provides support to cancer patients, has employed a number of big name architects for the construction of their buildings in the hopes that the architecture will aid in the healing process. We visited one of the centers in Leeds.

'The Leeds Corn Exchange is a Victorian building in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, which was designed by Cuthbert Brodrick and completed in 1864.
Designed by Cuthbert Brodrick, a Hull architect best known for Leeds Town Hall, this Grade I listed structure was completed in 1862 and opened on 28 July 1863. The dome design was based on that of the Bourse de commerce of Paris by François-Joseph Bélanger and François Brunet, completed in 1811. Leeds Corn Exchange is now just one of three corn exchanges in the country which operates in its traditional capacity as a centre for trade, albeit no longer for trading in corn.
After closing, its condition deteriorated. Early proposals for regeneration included turning it into a concert hall similar to the Royal Albert Hall.
In 1985, Speciality Shops plc won the contract to re-develop the Corn Exchange as a shopping centre. The refurbishment designed by Alsop & Lyall restored it and added staircases to allow access to the balcony and basement levels. It opened for trade in 1990. Many other buildings have been restored in the area, now known as the Exchange Quarter.
In November 2007 it was revealed that the centre (which was being refurbished after being taken over by Zurich Financial Services) was to be converted into a food emporium. The plans brought protests from the independent traders, who were removed from the Corn Exchange, and their customers.
After the restoration the Corn Exchange re-opened in November 2008 as a boutique shopping centre for independent retailers. The 13,200-square-foot (1,230 m2) ground level was occupied by Piazza by Anthony until its sudden closure in June 2013. The upper levels are home to a number of retailers.'
