A wasted opportunity to plant a new city centre park with ceremonial aproach to the cathedral and views back across the city. Any accomodation should have been built on the Great George street side which would have re generated theh area and rid it of the corpy flats that they have now or are in the process of pulling down anyway. Maybe in the future this can be realised with the redevelopment of the Great George street side already being planned. Hopefull the street will be repected/re introduced and utilised(retail/leisure at ground floor level) and the build will not just contain 'gated communities'. Done correctly, this could be our own mini Central park ave with the added bonus of the catedral.

    I've got a book called 'Liverpool from the air' by Colin Wilkinson which contains some amazing overhead pictures!

    Liverpool from the air is a great book for 1930s to 1990s (if I remember correctly) comparisons. You see so much of what was demolished for some crappy looking buildings.
