As the city has developed, locals have had to wave goodbye to many beloved local institutions, bidding a fond farewell to nightclubs, gig venues and shops. How many of these do you remember doing?

2. Rent films from Blockbusters
Before the wonders of Netflix, you actually had to leave your home and pick up a VHS or DVD for film night. Sadly the company no longer exists. | other Photo: Shutterstock
3. Go for a swim at the LIP

4. Party in the Park
The free music festival was held annually at Temple Newsam until 2014, when it was cancelled due to lack of funds. Busted, Arctic Monkeys, Olly Murs and Ricky Martin were among those who played it. | jpimediaresell Photo: Staff

6. Go to a gig under the Dark Arches
The Cockpit was one of the city's grungiest clubs and live music venues, which played host to the likes of The White Stripes, Queens of the Stone Age, Mumford & Sons and The Killers in its 20 year history. | jpimediaresell Photo: Staff
