Commissioned by Town Centre Securities, the book celebrates 50 years since the development of the Merrion Centre ‘a city within a city’. A pioneering mixed development in Leeds and once the largest single level centre in Europe, the Centre combines retail, food, night-time entertainment and office space. Nine photographers were given round-the-clock access to the Centre to make work for the publication.
