I bet the rest did too.
Next time we have another forum meet up, I want a pic of us all standing next to each other.
Does anyone know how this is getting on. I have looked at the website but there isn't much info on the project. I hope it is more than a rumour! It seems like a very high quality project and would be a great addition to our waterfront.
...true. That's the one that really looks exciting.
Was also thinking the same "what happened to that" thoughts about the proposedbusiness district.

I think the business district is still going ahead. The king edward tower looks really exciting but it's hard to get any info from the developers. I have tried e-mailing them but the address doesn't exist. There is an image of it on the website under 'spring review' in the downloads page.

That Piccadilly Village pic looks great doesn't it? I'd love to see those sort of models being applied to private and social housing within our city. Try to remove those lifeless low-density estates we have in and around the city centre and start building imaginative apartment districts like that one..
The King Edward pub site near to Liverpool's waterfront looks likely to remain derelict for months to come, after talks between its owner and city planners hit deadlock......continues....
......Harvey Developments submitted a planning application for a twin tower residential development just before Christmas but a source told the Daily Post the company was being frustrated in its attempts to get clear guidance from the council about exactly what type of design and usage it would be happy with.
You can already sense the planners are fuming over this,this new tower has the potential massive and they don't like it.Hopefully Liverpool Vision will sort this out and give us something at least the size of West tower.
With it only having a small footprint,this tower in its present state would probably be Liverpool's tallest building,I hope they get this one built.
King eddie = 512 apartments
Beetham west = 130 apartments
Depending on how much bigger the footprint is, thats a massive difference. Even when split into 2 towers of 256 apartments they work out to be around 50 stories, it can't be twin 50 storie towers! but I can't see how they can build 512 apartments on a small site without building very tall.
