Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
canals to view its modern museum describing
how it once was?

I know i've posted some of these up before but they'll be buried on the 1980/90s thread somewhere. These are on Shaw Street and taken by me in 1990, (the block on the 3rd pic has gone) The last one taken by Joe Devine captures the 'unique' homeless hostel on the left (see the Acacia house thread) also the Ann Fowler womens refuge, part of the Radcliffe estate and St. Georges Heights.

Shaw Street: Some of those buildings, to the left of the Gymnasium have been demolished recently. They were still standing when I passed a couple of months ago.
a few I have from around by the cathedral

A shame they let Grosvenor demolish one of the oldest Georgian houses left in the city centre that stood on Hanover street
Taken at the top of Seel St.
Anymore, anyone?
The finest surviving example of a Georgian Merchant house in Liverpool is not in L8 as one might think, but right opposite where I used to live in Trueman Street L3. (well - according to this plaque anyway)
It is the former residence of brewer John Houghton who funded the building of Christ Church on Hunter Street.
