Cornhill Quarter, also known as Lincoln Cornhill is a historic[1] and cultural[2] area of the city of Lincoln in Lincolnshire, England. It takes its name from the nearby former Cornhill building and square on Cornhill and High Street. A £70 million fund regenerated it [3] to enhance and modernize the area while maintaining the original buildings that exist.[4] This included the moving of the bus station[5] and work to demolish the former City Square shopping centre[6] which would be replaced by a hotel and residential flats.[7]
