Georges Dock Prior to the Three Graces Being Built

[Kev]

Here are several images of Georges Dock before the Three Graces were constructed.

I'm mesmerized by the wonderful warehouse buildings now sadly gone.

George's Dock forms a part of the basement of the Cunard Building. Snappel went in there and took pictures of the dock quay wall.

love the pic of the bridge.

as a kid I used to love being taken to see the warehouse by Wapping/Sefton St that had the giant pineapples on the top corners. By the time I'd thought to get a photo, it had been demolished.
