On 29th and 30th January, Peel will be hosting a community consultation event in respect of this
magnificent project titled Liverpool Waters to show their latest development plans for the redundant docks area north of the Pier Head in Liverpool.
The open event will take place in the shop at 9 Whitechapel in Liverpool city centre located between the Met Quarter and Lord Street - from 10am to 5pm both days.
Members of the public of all ages are invited. There will be a colouring competition for kids aged up to 12 years with the chance to win an iPod.
Visitors will be able to meet Peel’s team, see artists’ impressions and a scale model of the draft Liverpool Waters scheme and will be invited to give their views.
An outline planning application is currently being prepared.
This £5.5 billion waterside development scheme is the largest urban regeneration project in the UK extending to over 150 acres of currently derelict dockland. The proposals are designed to transform the site from an inaccessible, under-used area with a poor quality environment into a high quality, mixed-use new quarter of Liverpool where people can live, work and enjoy the spectacular waterfront.
Peel’s vision for Liverpool Waters includes creating a major sustainable community in this part of the city.
It is being designed to make a significant contribution to the economic resurgence of Liverpool
and its wider area, accommodating new and existing residents and increasing the number of visitors to the city.
Part of Liverpool Waters is being planned by Peel to accommodate city centre expansion. It is also intended to stimulate regeneration in adjoining areas of the city centre, north Liverpool and the wider area.
The mixed use development will include offices /commercial areas, new homes and visitor attractions with supporting uses, local shops and services. Based on a 30 year programme, Peel’s aspiration is that Liverpool Waters will become home to a substantial workforce and population, delivering many thousands of new jobs and homes.
