Liverpool Cotton Exchange Building, Grade II listed commercial building in Old Hall Street, Liverpool, United Kingdom

The Liverpool Cotton Exchange Building occupies an entire city block, featuring large windows designed for cotton sample inspection and Victorian design elements including polished Larvikite columns.

The building, opened in 1906 during Liverpool's dominance in global cotton trade, initially featured a neoclassical facade with columned portico and two baroque corner towers.

The structure housed a vast trading hall where merchants gathered daily to conduct cotton transactions, receiving price updates from New York and Bombay via telegraph.

The building now functions as a business center, with multiple floors of office space, two basement levels for storage, and preserved Victorian architectural features.

Hidden in the basement remains an unused restaurant with dark wood paneling, a large skylight, and Italian lakeside artwork in an alcove.
