The High Street Arcade is one of a series of Arcades built over the latter decades of the 19th century in Cardiff; at the end of the 19th century there were nine arcades in the City leading to the Title ‘City of Arcades’. This was as a consequence of the economic boom in the City based on the growing iron and steel industry of South Wales. In 1800 Cardiff had a population of 1000, by 1881 the population had risen to 85,378.
The High Street Arcade was constructed in 1885 to the designs of T.Waring and J.P.Jones and in 1902, the Duke Street extension was added.
The High Street Arcade number twenty three units provides an important east west covered link between the High Street itself and the bottom of Queen Street, the traditional prime shopping street. The Duke Street Arcade with nine units links in from Duke Street Arcade and the Castle.
