Summary: Modern Leeds is a vibrant, bustling city. A shopper's paradise, its broad streets and modern shopping centres offer the latest tastes and favourite brands. It is also a major UK hub of finance and commerce. In many ways, it has always been so. Leeds has a knack for being a savvy city, keeping apace with the trends, constantl modifying to accommodate new lifestyle habits, in a bid to make the place a desirable area to shop, work and do business. Moving with the times has meant the appearance of the city is constantly evolving. This book is a fascinating, photographic insight which charts these changes over the last 100 years, by comparing the past with the present. In the old photographs, Leeds is awash with bold Victorian buildings reflecting Baroque, Gothic and Classical influences. Electric trams weaved their way along the main thoroughfares.
