Haven't posted on here for a while, hope everyone is doing ok... Surely there is more going on than just Mr Colquoun's heritage lobbying? For me it is the council's short sightedness of designating...

Zaha Hadid's new Museum in Rome is up for the Stirling prize this year. An uncanny resemblance to 3XN's Liverpool design methinks. Didn't Hadid compete with 3XN for the Liverpool Museum? I wonder...
I find it amazing that they're all so blinkered as to not even assess it all as an option. It would obviously be a huge embarrassment factor for Neil Scales as he so stupidly bought all those tram...
Well, I guess the lack of a reply from Waterways says it all. If Central Station redevelopment is going to be scrapped then transport generally in Merseyside will suffer big time over the next...
Waterways, the new government seems to be all for the development of our railways (whether they'll be money for it is another thing). I definately can't see them supporting another ridiculous tram...
Nice work Devo! Finally some evidence.
I could never believe that the sound would travel that far across the water. Then I mentioned it to my work colleague who lives in Ellesmere Port and she...
Yes!! Finally someone has the answer to this long-running yoliverpool mystery. I'm pretty sure it must be from Eastham. From Aigburth Vale it definately appears to be coming from the direction of the...
Can't wait to have a look at it all on Saturday! Although I actually think the best bits will be in the St Peters Lane/ Hanover St areas. Ok, there's no Selfridges or Harvey Nichols (maybe Liverpool...
Absolutely agree with everyone. For me, the worst part is the way they've ruined all the islands in the middle of the watercourses. It made me realise how integral those areas are (were?!) to the...
I totally missed the link to the everydayforeverbody.com website! Apparently there is a model of the refurbished St johns in the marketing suite, which should be interesting. From the image of...
The CGI looks like the centre is just getting a re-clad. Has anyone seen the plans yet? What are they demolishing and what are they keeping? Also, I can't see where they're going to put the market...
Mmmm. More like Burn-it Turner! She didn't do much to help the lovely victorian office at number 6 Sir Thomas St... It just shows how much the Georgian is still prized over the Victorian in this...
Haven't posted for a while, but I just saw that they're about to start work on the park which made me excited. My favourite aspect of Sefton park are the watercourses and features surrounding them,...
I'm really pleased that this development is going ahead, as it's a pretty important building in the context of Liverpool's maritime history. Hopefully it won't have too much negative impact on the...
Hmmm. I'm not so sure. It looked a bit 60's office block to me when I walked past it. No denying the overall design is fantastic though.
Some interesting views on the area by Tom Dyckhoff. I'm not sure I entirely agree with him when he talks about Aigburth riding on the coat tails of Sefton Park and Mossley Hill. Half of Sefton Park...
Thanks for the link PhilipG. I can't believe I missed that page! Some interesting info there. I think the Conservation Centre does some great work, so lets hope the replica makes its way to the the...
Does anyone know if the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain in Sefton Park is going to be restored? Someone in another post mentioned that the Statue of Eros, which is now in the Conservation Centre, will...
Thanks Kev. Hope I can contribute to some really interesting discussions happening on this site.
My first post on Yo Liverpool!!
There is a Greystoke house along Aigburth Drive. I thinks It's actually one of the best of the Sefton Park Mansions.
