Document Belfast

@JamieBrysonLLB Hahahahahah it was only voted to go up for one day, it was taken down at tea time as expected, not because of any court ruling 😂😂

NEW: The terrorist flag of Palestine has now been removed, less than an hour after court hearing concluded.

@carlalockhart it was supposed to be Saturday to mark a worldwide day in solidarity with Palestine. Nobody had any issues with the council lighting up city hall in the colours of Ukraine so why now?? Grow up Carla and show some empathy to fellow human beings rather than playground politics

We see in Belfast City Hall how the dominance of the Nationalist/Republican alliance works out. These are the same people who tell us Unionists would be respected in their fantasy united Ireland. We see you, we hear you, and we aren’t fooled by your sugar coated words.

We are so excited to announce that following an 8-week restoration programme, the Mayoral lamp posts in front of Ulster Hall are now back to their former glory and shining bright indeed. They were officially inaugurated my the Lord Mayor @Tracybelfast1 on Wed 5th Nov.

@jggb1 @ChrisMccracken_ I don't think they are listed structures and regardless of this they have been restored to their most recent colour, they were already black and gold. The colour they were in the photos shown were likely not the original either, they've changed over the years

@ChrisMccracken_ Are these lamp posts listed structures requiring planning permission etc with accompanying research to determine the correct colour paint? Antrim Road and Grand Parade.

Beautiful restoration of the Lord Mayor’s lamppost outside the Ulster Hall is proceeding well. The lampposts celebrated Belfast’s elevation to City status in 1888, and were placed outside the newly elevated Lord Mayor’s residence right up to 1997 - we believe Ian Adamson may have been the last recipient. The posts were moved permanently to outside the Ulster Hall, where 30 years of weather took their toll, the fine black and gold paint was taken over by rust and the power connection eventually failed. LQ BID have been delighted to fund the restoration back to their former glory. As well as the connection with Belfast’s first citizens, the posts tell the story of the city through it’s ornamentation - including symbols representing linen, ship building, construction, and literature & art. We’ll be celebrating these unique pieces of urban architecture at an event on 5 November - follow the LQ newsletter for details.

As work is progressing well on the historic lamp posts in front of @UlsterHall it's time to reveal some samples of how the restored version will appear. The posts are known as the Mayoral Lamps and would have been installed at the Belfast Lord Mayor's residence until the 1990s.

@LinenQuarterBID @VisitBelfast @belfastcc @BelfastICC @PlanBelfast @niplanner @IdeaspaceNI @love_belfast @loveheritageNI I won't give it away!

Have you ever spotted these ornate lamp posts in front of Ulster Hall? They used to appear across the city before being moved to Ulster Hall in the 1990s. 🤔Any guesses as to what they are..? Keep your eyes peeled as their appearance might start to change over the next weeks!

New tour announcement! Trialling out "Secret Belfast" tour on Saturday 30 August, tickets are limited so if interested in joining drop us an email or click the link in Bio and enquire #Belfast #visitireland

@andydillon Aw fantastic places, if you ever get a chance you need to go

@DocumentBelfast What a great experience!

Went on what has to be one of the longest pub crawls in the world, visiting the Dead Rabbit establishments, run by Belfast man Jack McGarry, in the US. NYC to Austin and back again. Check it out via the link below and give her a wee like #Belfast #Guinness youtu.be/VfIo8xEvH6c?si…

@Knockb47 Two if then haha, luckily Jack from the Dead Rabbit gave me them!

@DocumentBelfast Conchur l hope that glass is in your cupboard at home

Back from Austin Texas and got assigned a driverless taxi by Uber. What are your thoughts on these? It was a great ride but I do worry about them replacing actual drivers. Maybe good for busy nights as a bolster? #Belfast vm.tiktok.com/ZNd5EbBgB/

My thoughts on AI tour guiding (weird to even say those words 🫩) #Belfast #AI

@BartLad69 @gordonlyons1 @MatthewOToole2 I tagged Lyons you dope

@DocumentBelfast @gordonlyons1 @MatthewOToole2 Screenshot sent to his office for defamation. Gordon Lyons did not release the location, the council had already released a statement and the protest was already plannedong before he posted his statement online. Hope your pockets are deep.

The despicable COMMUNITIES Minister @gordonlyons1 releases the location openly online of those being sheltered in Larne Leisure Centre after being burned out of Ballymena,THEN complains when people attack the leisure centre! @MatthewOToole2 well done on holding him accountable!

@GerryBridgett @gordonlyons1 @MatthewOToole2 Maybe worry about ones from here then

@DocumentBelfast @gordonlyons1 @MatthewOToole2 Catholic and Protestant Communities are equally worried about their daughters being followed, attacked, assaulted and traumatised for the rest of their lives They may or may not resume their ancient quarrels when the new to the parish are gone

@WrecklessGamer Womp womp, you're the one making insults so clearly you're a wee bit shaken by all this, it's ok. Just don't come on my page 🤘

Embarrassingly wrong yet still pretending he's right. Just your average bigot, not a brain cell in sight and if there was, it would by flying solo.
