Stepping through the entrance gates of the old Harland and Wolff drawing offices the new Titanic Belfast building looms impressively above me.
The Titanic Quarter’s centrepiece building could become as iconic to Northern Ireland as the Sydney Opera House is to Australia, it was claimed yesterday.
“Every effort is being made” to ensure that Belfast’s £97m Titanic signature building will be ready for the 2012 centenary, those behind it have said.
The construction of a new £1.5bn Titanic Quarter development for Belfast today moved a step closer after the planners gave its second phase the green light.
