What Makes Living In A City Centre Special?

Jan. 31, 2011 - PRLog -- HOUSING

Flats are available from studio style to 1, 2, or 3 bedroom flats as a rental or share of freehold by the month. This is a favourite of young, unmarried, scholars and professional people due to the efficiency of the accommodations. Monthly rates range from £450 to £950, which includes utilities. Flats are self-contained units with a kitchen, bath, living and bed room which occupy an apartment complex. The apartment complex usually offers a community meeting area and laundry facility for its tenants.

CULTURE AND HISTORY

The present day economy of Leeds was inspired by the vision of the Leeds City Council to make Leeds a major urban area of England and Europe. Leeds is a major telephone banking centre by its connections to the electronic infrastructure of the global economy. In its past, Leeds had prospered in its agricultural economy based on corn and wool, then diversifying to printing, engineering, and light manufacturing. With the advent of telecommunications, Leeds is prospering as a financial centre, with corporate and legal interests starting to increase.

The residents of Leeds enjoy an expanded retail sector which includes a luxury goods market. The main shopping street, Briggate, is a pleasant walk-through of sundries and grocer goods, eclectic and collectible bargains, and department store convenience. Queen Victoria Street in the Victoria Quarter is enclosed under a glass roof for year-round shopping. Millennium Square is a bustling centre of shopping, restaurants, clubs, theatres, and museums. Over 50 public libraries are located throughout Leeds and 5 mobile units serve outlying areas. The Central Library is located in the city centre on Headrow. Archaeological, archival, analytical, ecological services are provided by the West Yorkshire Joint Services, as well as trading standardization and materials testing in Leeds. Their site is located in the former public library at Sheepscar.

SECURITY

The West Yorkshire Police and West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service provide emergency services to the residents of Leeds. Health services are provided at various facilities: Leeds Teaching Hospital NHS Trust, Leeds Primary Care Trust, and Leeds Partnerships NHS Foundation Trust (mental). St. James University Hospital, considered one of the finest in Europe, is a large teaching hospital in the city centre. An online web site sponsored by NHS Leeds provides information about NHS services in Leeds, too.

SUMMARY

Furnished and unfurnished flats, studio to 3- bedroom style are available for immediate occupancy.
