Thanks Paul, that's a fantastic picture, especially now you can see it all really taking shape

Did Snappel take that Paul?

It looks so real, the wonders of modern technology eh!

A huge red crane has gone up somewhere near where Radio Merseyside used to be. I'm guessing it's the big new apartment block but I had no idea it would be as tall as the crane's looking. Anyone know how many storeys it's having?

You can see it on the render above.
12 storeys, perhaps?

Great render! Nice to see actual building designs rather than just the massing blocks that have been shown for ages. Anyone know what the really large building is on Paradise street facing school lane? Looks like it is in the exact footpriint of one side of the old car park and bus station. Is this the Odeon, a shopping precinct or an individual shop?
Looking foreward to see what they do with the design of the bridge from the carpark to the John Lewis building. Great oppurtunity for something interesting like they did in Manchester from Marksies to the Arndale..

Franno posted these scans from the One Park West brochure,it looks simply stunning,one of my favourite building being built at the moment without doubt.

It even has David and Victoria Beckham and family picnicking in front of it.

It looks nice but I can't help noticing it's lost a lot of its height - the tower sticking up by just 5 floors above the rest doesn't do it for me. Although park looks great.

Funny how the renders always show a nice sunny day. Wonder what it'll all look like on a typical Liverpool day

Much sunnier than typical Manchester day

I noticed a couple of days ago, there's a couple of concrete "ramps" going up onto the park from near the base of One Park West. I thought at first they'd be access ramps for the trucks and machinery, but now they look like they'll be the new pathways. It's all coming together nicely
