Arena Quarter, Mixed-use development in Leeds city centre, England.
Arena Quarter is a mixed-use development in central Leeds combining residential buildings, office spaces, retail shops, and event venues spread across multiple city blocks. The spaces flow together functionally, mixing housing with commercial and entertainment uses.
The area evolved from its former neighborhood of Little London after the city council decided to build a major indoor arena in 2013. This decision triggered a broader transformation of the entire district.
The area draws crowds for concerts, sports events, and exhibitions that shape the city's entertainment calendar. This concentration of venues creates a social hub where different age groups gather for live performances and entertainment.
Visitors can reach the district easily by bus from the railway station and find ample parking in the nearby Merrion Centre. The area is walkable, with different sections located close to one another.
Sky Plaza and other tall buildings house student residences and rank among the city's highest structures. This mix of student living and contemporary urban design gives the district a distinctive character.
