The story of Transport House began in the 1930s when Earnest Bevan selected the site as a new headquarters for the Transport Union in Ireland. Transport House, now a listed building, stands at the bottom of High Street opposite the Albert Clock . A unique structure, you either love it or hate it, but it always arouses interest and comment. The mural depicting the industries that traditionally made Belfast great - shipbuilding, engineering and aircraft manufacture - is in the style of socialist realism reminiscent of post-war Soviet art. This stands in contrast with the Empire-inspired Victorian and Georgian architecture that dominates the rest of the Belfast skyline.
