100 Greats 1921-2021

Titanic Quarter

Belfast’s Titanic Quarter is one of the world’s largest urban-waterfront regeneration projects. New apartments, film studios, education facilities, businesses and visitor attractions have been developed here. The largest most successful visitor attraction is Titanic Belfast, which is inspired by the Titanic and other ships that were built at the Belfast shipyard. Over £500 million has already been invested and around 20000 people live, work, visit and stay in the Titanic Quarter daily.

Despite COVID-19 restrictions, an Amazon warehouse was completed in August 2020 improving Amazon services to Northern Ireland customers. There are more plans to invest in and develop the Titanic Quarter.
