Clarence Dock is a shopping and leisure destination in central Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It also hosts a large residential population in waterside apartments, as well as a significant office presence.
Clarence Dock was developed as a £250 million mixed-use development between 2001 and 2007 and is located by the River Aire next to the Royal Armouries Museum which faces onto Armouries Square. Clarence Dock's main shopping street radiates southbound off Armouries Square and is called 'The Boulevard'. Another important focal point is 'The Anchorage' at the top of the dock itself. The whole development opened officially to the public in late 2007. The retail and leisure sector of the development was launched on Saturday 11 October 2008 with fashion shows from celebrity fashion consultant and TV presenter Gok Wan. Upon completion, Clarence Dock now attracts around 1.5 million visitors a year.[citation needed]
The Clarence Dock development scheme features Clarence House, a 218-foot (66 m) tower consisting of 227 apartments and six retail units. Upon completion in April 2007, it became the eighth tallest building in Leeds, it has however now been pushed to being the twelfth tallest building.
Clarence Dock also plays host to the Annual Waterfront Festival each June with Dragon Boat Racing, Stalls and other activities being centered around Armouries Square.

INFO :
Princes Dock was the third dock to be built in Hull, and was sandwiched in between the older two - Queens (1778) and Humber (1809)
The dock began construction in December 1827, two decades after permission was granted, and was paid out of the pockets of Hull Dock Company.
Opening came eighteen months later and the new complex, having begun under the name 'Junction Dock' converted to its better known title in honour of Queen Victoria's husband Prince Albert .
Together with the adjoining docks, it connected the river Hull and the larger River Humber together both by boat and by train, the track being fed in from the Hull and Barnsley Railway.
The area lasted in business for almost 140 years until its closure in late 1968.
Today, Princes Dock has been primarily developed over although plenty of evidence still remains. A sizeable marina exists where the countless cobles and trawlers once presided, and is now home to yachts, power boats and a few preserved maritime relics .
Railway track segments remain set into the cobbled roads surrounding the dock although are severed by resurfacing in places. Two rotating swing bridges (still operational) and a pair of wooden wagon turntables also survive.
The innermost portion of the former dock has been occupied by Princes Quay shopping centre (opened 1991), although it does retain water alongside for ornamental purpose.
