L1 has no cranes anymore, plus I think St Pauls only has 1 now.
I know this is a city centre crane count but have you seen the ones at Whiston Hospital? There must be about 6! :PDT_Xtremez_42:
It's great that regeneration is taking place all over now,there are a lot of projects outside of the city centre just waiting to start.:PDT11

Cheers Paul, I was listening to Kev Seed the other day and he said that the cranes are colour coded depending on where abouts they are in town, ie PSD all white. Is there any truth in this?
I doubt it. I'd have thought it's down to whichever crane hire company is used. PSD has white, red, green and blue cranes on it. I expect most sites only use one hire company, and so probably have the same colour cranes. As Paradise St is broken down into sub-sites, it's possible that different bits use different companies.
One more Iliad one on Duke Street, plus at least two new ones on Paradise Street.
There's one just gone up at Park Road, on the Clarendon Park development (which is mostly finished), opposite Somerfield.
I'll put a photo in the Toxteth thread.
I don't know if this is on the list...it's over the road from the University in Duckinfield Street (rear of Catholic Cathedral). This is one of the very few sites where you can see what's going on...until they put up hoardings down this street.
Edit: I checked the hoardings and this is already on the list...arts and design building for the university.

Has anyone taken any pics from Hannover street ?...It looks like a "forest" of cranes from there.
Kev's 4th pic above is from Hannover st, looking past the new BBC Radio Merseyside building. Great pics Kev.
Cheers Ged.
