    Oh well...

    As a market its proved sucessful, however, the building is too significant to just sit there opening of a weekend only.

    I agree Kev, but training centers, arts, music etc would keep it open all week.

    And too significant to be just another dead Waterloo mk2 flat conversion?

    Ok let this happen, but let it happen with loads of new shops and bars and access for EVERYONE..Also let all those new businesses be locally owned and run new start-up, and not the usual sterile corporate-chain ****e you get on EVERY new development...

    Why can't Liverpool trailbaze a whole new, unque LOCAL way of managing new development?

    They should have lots of public areas, and lots of photos of the warehouse in use on the walls...

    Got to agree with Gnomie here.

    I am made up that something will get done with the buildings. It's excellent news, but it doesn't mean anything to me as an Anfield resident with not much hope of getting out.

    Some of you have said that L'pool people can afford to live in these apartments .. well, I can safely say that no one I know could even dream of renting or owning one of them.

    Of course, we do have a proffessional class here - we do have SOME Liverpudlians who can afford them .. but in general there are thousands of people from the districts that Gnomie listed that it will be meaningless to.

    Will we see any of these on the Canal when the dock is finished >>>>



    Would make a nice tourist attraction and a commuter link with the city.
