    The fly-through will be available to watch from noon today on the daily post website. I'm not sure when the official website will be up and running.

    The heritage lobby aren't going to like this,we must remain firmly in the past.It's absolutely amazing isn't it? I want to see planning applications going in before I get too excited though.

    OMG!
    I may be an old cynic, but that video is amazing. The last bit with the monorail almost brought a tear to my eye. If only.....

    Would be great for Liverpool to look like that.

    We'd all have a field day with the Cameras If the dock area already did look like that.

    It was the 2nd story they covered,loads of comments like most of us will never see it built etc,they were refering to its timescale.They're bitter and can't take it when Liverpool shows that they can propel themselves back on to the World stage and they're completely powerless at preventing it.

    Wonder how long It would take to complete though.

    Even reincarnated I might not be Scouser again!

    Bit mad that wasn't it?
    Those wind turbines in the top of those buildings were a good idea though.
    Also,it was good to see not one hooded gob****e walking round or anyone with one of those hats with the ear flaps turned up.

    Tony "Anthony H" Wilson would be quiet.

    I'm already senile, you don't need a senile 60 year old Max.

    I did watched body building pensioners on BBC a few days ago so I could still be In shape at least.

    Yeah, what are they about? What happened to individuality? Are today's scallies born with black NorthFace jackets on?

    Talking

    Three words: OMG. This is truly amazing. We must all get behind this and support it all the way. This will propel Liverpool into a different league. So what if it takes 30-40 years to complete, remember some buildings will be complete long before then and Peel did say they will build from the river inwards.
    It's great to see the Stanley Dock warehouse and the clock tower will remain. I suppose there will be a few organisations who will moan, but you always get that with every project. I like the fact that it is well away from any buildings like the three graces etc. We will have an old town and a new town like alot of other cities. Imagine travelling up the mersey on a cruise ship going past all the amazing skyscrapers and then going past the 'older' Liverpool with the graces and the Albert Dock etc.
    Liverpool needs and wants this. Life for everyone will get better and Liverpool will be way ahead of cities like Manchester and Birmingham. It's great to see that the council are backing it, but my only concern is EH. We must stand firm and not let the minority destroy it for us all .
