The Shanghai Palace is finally getting demolished...probably the best view is from Wirral, or a ferry.
Their website is still around:

You took a risk today didn,t you Lindy? It will look better when they,ve filled the hole back in won,t it?
Glad that building has gone.

In the days when we had nothing we had fun.
If tomorrow starts without me, remember I was here.

The Sir Alfred Lewis Jones statue can be seen in the North View, waiting to be re-erected (maybe tomorrow, by the look of it)

One is going back to the Pier Head

FOR 87 years, the statue of King Edward VII sat on his horse on a granite pedestal overlooking the River Mersey.
Now his majesty is on his way back to his familiar spot on the waterfront after a thorough spring clean by experts at Liverpool’s Conservation Centre.
Specialist restoration work was carried out after the statue was moved from the Pier Head so the new Leeds-Liverpool canal extension could be laid.
The refurbished 16ft bronze is photographed leaving the centre before making its way across the city back to the Pier Head.
It has been restored using a combination of the latest technology and traditional conservation methods.
Created by sculptor Sir William Goscombe, the statue was unveiled by King Edward VII’s son, the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) on July 5, 1921.

Nice picture, Greg's Dad, but do I spy a Manchester phone number on that water container?!
An outrage!
