About

Hull City Centre is the commercial and civic core of Kingston upon Hull. The area is defined by its grid of streets and public squares, with Queen Victoria Square serving as a central focal point. Key landmarks include the Guildhall, Hull City Hall, and the Maritime Museum. The main retail district stretches along Jameson Street and Prospect Centre, with the St Stephen's shopping centre located at its northern edge. Transport links converge here, including the Paragon Interchange railway and bus station.

The city centre's layout reflects its mercantile history, with many former banks and warehouses now repurposed. The Hull Truck Theatre and Hull New Theatre are major cultural venues. A distinctive feature is the city's cream-coloured telephone boxes, which differ from the classic red design found elsewhere in the UK. The area is bordered by the Hull Marina and the River Hull to the east, with the historic Old Town and Museum Quarter adjacent.
