Grey Street

Grey Street was built by Grainger in the 1830s with the aid of several architects, including John Dobson. The whole of the western side of the street was designed by two architects from Grainger’s office, John Wardle and George Walker.
Grey Street contains the Theatre Royal designed by John and Benjamin Green, the southern entrance to Monument Metro station and the Central Arcade. It is renowned for its Georgian architecture, and was in 2010 voted ‘Best street in the UK’ by BBC Radio 4 listeners.

Eldon Square Shopping Centre

Newcastle Shopping Centre
Eldon Square shopping centre opened in 1976 and was built on the site of Old Eldon Square, a famous part of Georgian Newcastle designed by John Dobson in about 1824. This redevelopment, which left only the eastern terrace standing, has been criticised, with one writer calling it “the greatest single example of architectural vandalism in Britain since the war”.
