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.

The dock looks empty without the 100 seater and there's a lot more evening light on east side of the works!
Hebden Bridge delicacy: dock pudding (which is made from common bistort, not dock leaves). It tastes fantastic.
Leeds Dock (formerly New Dock and previously Clarence Dock) is a mixed development with retail, office and leisure presence by the River Aire in central Leeds.
The dock was constructed for boats using the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the Aire and Calder Navigation to tranship goods and commodities from Leeds city centre in 1843. It was primarily used to bring coal from collieries around Rothwell and Wakefield to supply heavy industries in Hunslet and business and commerce in Leeds city centre.
Leeds Dock is now the home of the Royal Armouries Museum, a major national museum.
