Bute Street: Cosmopolitan Highway
This is an exhibition about life in a street that was, for a century, the most famous in Wales. From the mid-1800s to the 1960s redevelopment, Bute Street was a financial centre and cosmopolitan highway – a busy thoroughfare occupied by people from different classes and some fifty nations. Connecting the city to its seafront, the street was occupied by hundreds of businesses – from ship owners, exporters, accountants and engineers to boarding houses, hairdressers, grocers and cafés. Long before "ethnic cuisine" became popular, the visitor to Bute Street could dine on Chinese, Spanish, Arabic, Greek, Somali or West Indian food – for this was a zone of true inter-cultural contact.
