    Default Picture of the Day. June 2008.

    1 June.

    The old Dock designed and built by Thomas Steers between 1709 and 1715.

    Not really, Kev.
    The glass is only about 2 feet wide and you have to move around to get a better idea of the layout.
    I think the idea was to show the full height of it.
    What we can see is the NE corner (I think!).
    The Hilton Hotel is on a lot of the site of the old dock.

    at least they have had the foresight to allow us to glimpse even a bit of it.

    most constructors would have covered it completely.

    it's really tough to see it during the day as the light reflects off the glass and all you can see are the reflections of the people looking down.

    qg.
    There are still reflections to avoid.
    Most noticeably, the strip lights from John Lewis.

    Thanks, but it's early days yet!

    Kev.
    I thought it has an outer space look, too.
    I almost posted this shot.

    With a name like Al Snober, it's not perhaps surprising this restaurant is up for let. Photo taken in London Rd, Liverpool

    Very good, Marky.
    I think it was Saturday that I noticed it for the first time.
    Now that I can stay on the bus past Lewis's I haven't had a chance to snap it, and I hadn't seen it from that viewpoint.
