Sorry, I don't understand this. Why can't local people afford it? There are plenty of people living in Liverpool who could buy or rent properties in the building. I don't see the logic there - sorry.

As far as the buildings go, it's great news. Personally I'd love it to stay as it is, but we all know that's not logical. The most important thing is that the warehouses structures will be preserved for decades to come. Imagine they'd been demolished like so many others! Obviously the grain silo will be demolished, but that's not exactly historic. I just hope they preserve the remains of the pumping station at the river end of the dock.

The Heritage Market will no doubt locate, but I don't care as it's a filthy mess anyway (sorry...) and was only ever good for one thing.
