Victoria Street like many streets in the city centre is lined with dozens of listed buildings. The commercial district is on the Castle Street, Dale Street and Old Hall Street areas of the city, and many of the area’s roads still following their original medieval layout.

Often regarded as the city’s finest piece of Georgian architecture, the building is noted as one of the most extravagantly decorated civic buildings anywhere in Britain. The area around William Brown Street is known as the city’s ‘Cultural Quarter’, owing to the presence of numerous civic buildings, including the William Brown Library, Walker Art Gallery, Picton Reading Rooms and World Museum Liverpool. St George’s Hall is widely regarded as the best example of a neo-classical building anywhere in Europe.

William Brown Street is also home to numerous public monuments and sculptures, including Wellington’s Column and the Steble Fountain. Speke Hall is a Tudor manor house located in the south of the city, which was completed in 1598, and is one of the few remaining timber framed Tudor houses left in the north of England and is famed for its Victorian style interior.

The oldest building within the city centre is the Bluecoat Chambers which was originally the home of the Bluecoat School. It is now a centre for arts in Liverpool. Liverpool Cathedral is regarded as one of the greatest buildings of the twentieth century and is one of the largest church buildings in the world. The Anglican Cathedral is the largest Cathedral in Britain and the fifth largest in the world.
