Here's a New Brighton photo (Victoria Road?) from the 90s--the building to the left looks like it may have been a cinema. Or a bank. Any ideas? I would be very surprised if it were still standing.
Could someone tell me whatever became of The Newington--my memory is fuzzy, but I remember it being off of Renshaw street, close to Lewis's. This photo is from sometime in the 90s after it had been...
I lived in Philharmonic Court (to the right in your photo, through the gates) while attending university, but oddly enough didn't go to the Belvedere very often. Shot from 1984:

This is one of my favorite photos by Martin Parr (taken in 1983), I've got a postcard of it hanging by my desk. It seems fairly mundane when you first look at it,with the girl skipping happily in the...
Kind of sad that Concourse House is ending its life as a giant billboard. What about all that ugly business in front of the train station? I think I read somewhere it was going to be removed and the...
I remember there being a postcard thread but I can't seem to find it, so I'll stick this one here. St. Johns Precinct, so shiny and new...I'm not sure how much of the shopping center still exists in...
This is a problem, as I'm planning a trip for later in the year, and wanted to take my husband to a match, but from looking at the LFC website it seems pretty much impossible for outsiders to get...
Thanks SteH for the detective work, I think '93 sounds about right. So ticket prices have only gone up about 400% since then, right? :rolleyes:
Actually, it's the Kop, right? I'm looking at the other picture I posted, and that would make sense. Does it still look anything like this?
...
Alright. There's no mystery that this was the Kemlyn Road entrance at Anfield, but I need a date. Any idea when tickets to this stand were 8 pounds? The car parked in the front should also give a...
Oh good, another mystery solved - I just found a photo of this street and was wondering where it was. This photo is from the early 90s, I think.
Here's a nice panorama shot (that I wish I had taken!) from a 1983 postcard. (photograph by Peter Hagerty, copyright Light Impressions, Liverpool)

Thanks for posting these Philip, brings back a few memories! For the amount of time I spent here waiting for the bus to Waterloo (where my boyfriend lived), I'm surprised I never took a photo. It...
Thanks everyone, I think my mystery is solved. Dave, your picture is taken from almost the same vantage point as mine! I was thinking that the building on Norfolk St. had probably been demolished by...
Since this appears to be the "identify this building, please" thread I'm curious about the large building to the center right in this photo. What was it? Is it still there? I think this Guinness...
This is one of the first things I noticed when I went back to Liverpool a few years ago, that the old concrete bins had been replaced with something a little more functional. They always seemed to be...
Oh, that's a sad story. I have good memories of the Royal Iris. Saw a John Peel roadshow gig featuring The Farm and Ted Chippington on board in June (or was it July?) of 1985 that was, well,...
Thanks for the photos Philip, and the info. Amazing. I remember a visit in '87 where my friend and I were walking around this area at night (why, I'm not sure) and there were some bonfires going in...
Here's a couple of photos from my Flickr set I've recently re-scanned, PhilipG thinks they may be Kent Gardens. I can't find "Kent Square" in my A-Z but I suspect this was somewhere by Kent St, south...
Slightly OT, but has anyone got a copy of Seaport: Architecture and Townscape in Liverpool by Quentin Hughes? It was published in 1964 and has many photos of buildings that are probably gone now....
Thanks Kev, I figured it was something like that! So I'll give it another go, here's a photo I recently tried printing by myself in a darkroom class and is a little better than the faded, washed-out...
Wow, people are talking about me? I'm flattered! To be honest, I did join the forum awhile back, but got distracted, forgot my login, but here I am.
I'm not quite sure how to upload photos to a...
