Multrees Walk is a pedestrian shopping precinct in Edinburgh, Scotland.
History
Built in 2003 as part of a larger city centre redevelopment, it links St Andrew Square to the St James Quarter, lined on each side with designer stores selling clothing, artwork and various other luxury items.
Harvey Nichols department store is the anchor of the development and has its main entrance on St. Andrew Square, with a smaller entrance onto Multrees Walk.
Multrees Walk, Harvey Nichols and Edinburgh Bus Station were all designed by Edinburgh architects CDA. The bus station sits at a lower level from Multrees and is accessed by escalators from St Andrew Square, or by a ramped entrance from Elder Street.
St Andrew Square tram stop is to the front of Harvey Nichols.
Cycling is not permitted in Multrees Walk
