Leeds Dock, Mixed-use development near River Aire, Leeds, England.

Leeds Dock is a waterfront development alongside the River Aire with residential areas, offices, restaurants, and leisure facilities spread across the site. The project blends historic dock structures with new buildings arranged around water and green spaces.

The dock was built in 1843 to help move coal from local mines through the Leeds-Liverpool Canal to industries in the area. The original port site was later transformed into a modern residential and commercial destination.

The area draws people who enjoy walking along the waterfront and dining out. The mix of heritage and modern life makes it a gathering place for locals and visitors alike.

The site is easily reachable by public transport and has walking and cycling paths along the waterfront. Visitors should bring appropriate clothing for the season, as weather changes throughout the year.

Small water taxis offer an unusual way to move around the dock. These boats follow the waterways and give visitors a different view of the site.
