Media reports during the week suggested that the tourist office, currently housed in the former Ulster Bank Image, Donegall Place, would move to this former Northern Bank branch at Donegall Square North Image – well placed opposite the City Hall. The proposal for a move has been around for some time and is recorded in the minutes of the Council’s Development Committee on 13 January 2010: “The recommendation is that the Northern Bank site on Donegall Square North provides the optimum available location for the Belfast Welcome Centre. . . . . . In order to make an informed decision on the relocation of the Belfast Welcome Centre to the Northern Bank 8-10 Donegall Square North, more detailed plans and costings must be produced.” Image shows the new tourist office in December 2013.
