Background
History
The arcade and the building above it were designed by James McKinnon in 1880, for developer George Fisher. During the 1980s and 1990s, the arcade was owned by Prudential Portfolio Managers Ltd. In 1987 they refurbished the building façades and installed canopies over the Donegall Place and Fountain Street entrances. They carried out further refurbishment works during 1994. In September 2024, Lunn's announced that they would be expanding into the building that formerly housed Carlton Cafe and most recently Oasis.
