    DEVELOPERS behind the city's biggest private residential scheme are being told they must make 15% of the homes family-sized.

    Restrictions on how the Baltic Triangle can be used have been drawn up, and include conditions about creating a public area and limits on the scale of the buildings.

    Windsor Group, the main developer in the area, has submitted two planning applications but will now submit revised plans early next year.

    Windsor's scheme is part of a massive redevelopment of an area of land immediately adjacent to Kings Dock and the Baltic Fleet pub.

    The L1 project comprises three blocks of luxury apartments. First phase is worth £50m and the second £270m.

    Wanted to climb one of the L1 cranes, but they're all locked! The bottom of the building site is flooded, so obviously nobody's been doing any work in there recently.

    What would count as family size? Council Houses aren't family sized.

    THE future of a £50m luxury Liverpool flats scheme is in doubt after almost six months of inactivity at the Baltic triangle site.

    Known as L1, the Windsor Group development was hit by two stoppages last year due to contract disputes between Windsor and its builder, Laing O’Rourke.

    In August Laing O’Rourke removed almost 200 builders from the site in the latest row, believed to have been over the timing of payments by the developer.

    Last September Windsor part-owner Roger Darwin said he was confident a deal could be worked out and work could recommence.

    But the site has been in limbo since then with no prospect of a return to normal construction work. continues....

    At my desk in work I sit facing those cranes and for the past ?? months (been so long I can't remember), apart from getting blown by the wind, they've not moved. In the last couple of days, two of the four cranes have been taken down. Not a good sign
