Victoria Street, Belfast (3)
All the buildings, in this view of Victoria Street, have now vanished. Those in the background were demolished as described in Image
Those in the foreground (including the building from which the photograph was taken) went under the bulldozer for the Victoria Square development Image
In the days before the Westlink Image and the M3 Image, all traffic from the south to the north and north Down passed along Victoria Street (much quieter now).

There is no equivalent in 2011. This is an approximate “then and now” Image
