Liverpool Cruise Liner Terminal

[Jericho]

I would have settled for Landing Stage. I'm just glad that it doesn't have the word 'ocean' in it.

And they revealed the multi-million pound facility would bear a simple and straightforward name – the City of Liverpool Cruise Terminal.

I never thought of that one,think big Liverpool!

Wasn't the old landing stage known as the Princes Landing Stage? What would have been wrong with that? The chosen name seems to me a bit work-a-day and uninspired but I suppose it will serve its purpose.

Manchester has a cruise terminal, where the Mersey ferry docks after its ship canal journey. What's that - Liverpool think big?????

At least with the title Ocean gateway, it's telling the world something - that this is your first port of call, like in the old days.

I wonder how much a team of consultants were paid to think that name up, there was a case a few years ago of bradford university wanted a name for the new teaching hospital after nine months the consultants came up wioth university of bradford teaching hospital

(2) Samuel Cunard Way

The mind boggles

"Angie Redhead, the city council’s cruise manager"
What a cool name!
"Cruise manager" George Michael could have done with one of these before his career went down the sh**ter

LIVERPOOL’S new cruise liner landing stage will be towed into its new home before the end of May, leaving just weeks to rehearse its security and management processes.

However, council cruise manager Angie Redhead last night insisted that the project was racing forward at ‘‘full steam ahead’’ pace.

The council’s executive board will today formally endorse the new name for the £19m cruise facility, to be known as the City of Liverpool Cruise Terminal. continues....

Thats great news! I hope it all goes to plan. I work in the Cunard Building so I have a birds-eye view of the site.

Great stuff!
