Atlantic Wharf

Atlantic Wharf ((ウェールズ語:Glanfa Iwerydd)) is a southern area of the city of Cardiff, Wales. It is primarily an area of new houses and apartments located on the west side of the disused Bute East Dock and to the east of Lloyd George Avenue. It also includes a number of refurbished dock warehouses, modern hotels, the Red Dragon Centre and Cardiff Council's County Hall. Atlantic Wharf lies in the Butetown electoral division of Cardiff and the Cardiff South and Penarth constituency for the UK Parliament/Welsh Government.
==History==
The Bute East Dock (originally called the East Bute Dock) was constructed to ease pressure on the existing Bute Dock in the 1850s. It was opened by the 12-year-old Third Marquess of Bute on 14 September 1859.〔Richards, John ''CARDIFF: A Maritime History.'' Tempus Publishing, 2005, p.47-48〕 The new dock was 1,310 m in length and up to 152m wide.〔 It was surrounded by railway sidings and large warehouses. Eventually the Bute East Dock was closed in 1970. The railway sidings were removed.〔Richards, John ''CARDIFF: A Maritime History.'' Tempus Publishing, 2005, p.147〕
Only after 1980 did redevelopment begin around the disused dock.〔Ungersma, M. (Ed.) ''CARDIFF: Rebirth of a Capital.'' Cardiff Council, 2005, p.88-90〕 The Cardiff Bay Development Corporation was set up in the late 1980s to drive regeneration of the Docks area.〔 Atlantic Wharf grew to include housing, new businesses, hotels and the conversion of three large derelict dock warehouses in the close vicinity of Bute East Dock.〔 In 1988 the County Council built a new council headquarters building at Atlantic Wharf to reinforce the regeneration initiatives. It has been described as a "remarkable gesture of faith () the South Glamorgan County Council".〔Newman, J. ''The Buildings of Wales: Glamorgan'' University of Wales Press (1995), p.263〕
A new multiplex cinema and leisure complex was built nearby, known as Atlantic Wharf Leisure Village (now the Red Dragon Centre). Collingdon Road was landscaped and redeveloped to form a mile-long boulevard to Cardiff Bay. Work was completed in 2000 and the road was renamed Lloyd George Avenue.
