This is where the new canal link will be heading to and from the 4 lock area
As always, great shots, Gregs Dad!
The rest of the Pier Head/canal section is open to the public (the part in front of the Liver Buildings). It's just a large, empty space at the moment.

The last photo looks as if it brings the boats UP from the Princes Dock level, or am I looking at it wrong?

The canal link as it leaves the East Waterloo dock. Last year the dock became a little wildlife haven with it`s little isletsfor the geese and oyster catchers to have their offspring but yesterday there was a bulldozer flattening the bottom of the dock.
