The 11 Leeds developments set to transform the city as we know it in 2022

Leeds is a rapidly growing city which has seen huge change over the last 30 years.

The city centre has shifted drastically with the now sprawling Trinity Leeds shopping centre being dominant, alongside the new ultra-modern Victoria Gate complex, while the redevelopment of the Majestic by Channel 4 has transformed the City Square area.

New additions to the skyline have also shot up, with 2005's sprawling skyscraper Bridgewater Place being toppled from the top spot by 2020's Atlus House, a 37-storey building that is now the tallest building in Yorkshire.

And plans haven't stopped there. A major project from Leeds City Council and the West Yorkshire Combined Authority plans to completely alter the area around Leeds Station, while work has begun on an ambitious project to build two new hospitals in a £650m scheme at Leeds General Infirmary and to build a £80m School of Arts building for Leeds Beckett University.

However, it is just not commercial buildings that are springing up on the skyline, there are also plans to redevelop and regenerate disused sites and older, historic buildings to create entirely new neighbourhoods and homes for people to live.

We have already seen new developments across the city, but here are 11 new ones set to change Leeds as we know it.
