This area is also where an annual LBGT parade Leeds Pride finishes, the bridge is now painted in the rainbow colours of the rainbow flag. The bridge was due vital repairs by Network Rail but it was suggested to them local LGBT campaigner Thomas Wales that they should also take this opportunity to re-paint the bridge in the rainbow colours of the Rainbow flag in order to relate to the LGBT area of gayleeds surrounding it. The maintenance work on the bridge began in September 2016 and was completed with the paintwork just in time for Valentines Day in February 2017. Once it was completed it became known as the 'Freedom Bridge" a term coined by local LGBT activist Ross McCusker, the term itself relates to the rainbow paintwork which is inspired by the late San Francisco artist Gilbert Baker's Freedom Flag. LGBT campaigner Thomas Wales mentioned that the idea came about because he wanted to highlight the changing, progressive landscape of the city. Leeds City Council and local business' also contributed their support to the project.

Platform, formerly known as City House and British Railways House, is a building over Leeds railway station that was built by Taylor Woodrow in 1962. The buildings were, like many other railway buildings in the UK, designed by the later-derided architect John Poulson who also designed the nearby Leeds International Pool. Upon its construction it was famously lambasted by the poet John Betjeman, who said that the building blocked all the light out of City Square and was only a testament to money, having no architectural merit. He made similar criticism in 1968. The building was bought by a property company, Kenmore, in 2006 with a view to regenerating what it described as a "tired and dilapidated" building. Kenmore received planning permission in 2008 to extend the building at the back (on the south side) and re-clad it in glazed curtain walling. The scheme was due to be completed in 2009. However Kenmore went into liquidation in 2009 before the scheme had started. A December 2011 photo shows little change from the 2008 image (left).In 2010 the building was bought by office property company Bruntwood which plans to redevelop it. Planning permission for the refurbishment was granted by Leeds City Council on 13 October 2011. Bruntwood's brochure for the redevelopment claims that: "our aim is to transform this neglected property into a new high-profile business destination, creating office space to suit all sizes and types of organisation. The exterior of the building will be given a striking new look with contemporary curtain wall glazing. On the inside, the offices will be completely refurbished with the upper floors also boasting unrivalled panoramic views across the city".Work commenced in October 2015, with the refurbishment completed in 2017. It was renamed Platform.
