Multrees Walk

Multrees Walk is a pedestrian shopping precinct in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Built in 2003 as part of a larger city centre redevelopment, it links St Andrew Square to the St James Quarter and its shops sell luxury goods including clothing, stationery and handbags.[1]

Harvey Nichols department store is the anchor of the development and has its main entrance on St. Andrew Square, with a smaller entrance on Multrees Walk.

Multrees Walk, Harvey Nichols and Edinburgh Bus Station were all designed by Edinburgh architects CDA. The bus station sits at a lower level from Multrees and is accessed by escalators from St Andrew Square, or by a ramped entrance from Elder Street.

St Andrew Square tram stop is to the front of Harvey Nichols.

Louis Vuitton refurbishment

Louis Vuitton announced the reopening of their newly redeveloped store at 1-2 Multrees Walk in August 2023, which includes the addition of an upper floor and a spiral staircase.

The reopening marks their 20th anniversary in Multrees Walk.[2]
