About

Central ward is a compact urban district situated directly north of Belfast City Centre. It encompasses the Cathedral Quarter, known for its cobbled streets and converted warehouses that now house restaurants and bars. The area includes St Anne's Cathedral, a notable landmark with its distinctive spire. Commercial activity is focused along Royal Avenue and Donegall Street, which contain retail outlets and offices.

The ward is bordered by the River Lagan to the east and the Westlink motorway to the west. It features the historic Cotton Court and the Metropolitan Arts Centre (The MAC), a key cultural venue. The area has a significant concentration of administrative and legal services, with numerous solicitors' firms located here. Residential population is relatively low, with housing primarily consisting of apartments within the commercial core.
