It should be redeveloped for high quality housing. This will respond to a critical need in South Liverpool. Housing use will enable the beneficial use of the listed building and redevelopment of City Campus (LJMU) the remainder of the site provides an opportunity to deliver high quality apartment development alongside large family housing, including 4 and 5 bedroom properties with gardens. The IM Marsh Campus comprises various university buildings, that range in age and quality, and three sports pitches. The buildings on the Site will be surplus to academic requirements, following the planned transfer of faculties to the Copperas Hill site in the City Centre. The buildings are relatively low quality both visually and physically, apart from two historic buildings. The previously developed land on the Site represents c.50% of the total Site area. The remaining Site area comprises sports pitches which LJMU are currently developing a strategy to relocate near to the City Centre Campus. These planned improvements are part of LJMU’s wider vision to deliver a walkable campus within Liverpool City Centre.

  • Liverpool City Centre Chapter Pages from the Draft Liverpool Local Plan
    The Draft Liverpool Local Plan EXTRACT CITY CENTRE CHAPTER September 2016 liverpool.gov.uk 6 Liverpool City Centre 6 43 6 6 Liverpool City Centre Context 6.1 The purpose of this chapter is to set a vision and objectives for Liverpool City Centre and specific planning policies/ approaches (both area and thematic based) which are unique to the City Centre. The Core Strategy did not include a City Centre Chapter, however policies within some of the thematic based chapters did include City Centre specific policies. Given that the City Council is now developing a Local Plan for the City it was considered appropriate to bring all the policies that are unique to the City Centre into one chapter. However, in all cases development proposals within the City Centre should be considered against all relevant city wide policies as well as specific policies within this chapter. Once adopted, the policies within this chapter will enable planning decisions to take account of city centre priorities and issues. 6.2 Given this is a consultation document, the chapter has not been fully developed. It does include a draft vision and set of draft objectives based on issues identified. The City Centre SIF has informed these. Some policies are more developed than others and for some policy areas the document only highlights issues that may need to be covered by policy.The consultation process will assist in drawing out all the key planning issues that need to be addressed in the City Centre. 6.3 It is intended that this chapter will also include a schedule of proposed City Centre allocations which will be shown on an inset Policies Map.The proposed boundary of the City Centre and Character Areas is shown on Map 1.

WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT, URBAN REGENERATION AND LOCAL POLITICS IN NEW ORLEANS AND LIVERPOOL By Mickey Lauria College of Urban and Public Affairs University of New Orleans New Orleans, Louisiana 70148, USA E-mail: [email protected] fax: 504-286-6272 1 INTRODUCTION New Orleans and Liverpool were great world ports that declined precipitously in the mid 20th century, but have begun to modernize recently (in the 1970s - 1980s). Both cities have remnant populations that reflect their historical slave trade and unusually large merchant class. Both cities traditionally have had low manufacturing bases, and thus had difficulty absorbing their large pools of unemployed dock workers during port decline and restructuring to meet containerization. Finally, both New Orleans and the Merseyside Development Corporation have largely pursued what has been called the “Corporate Centered Approach” to waterfront development and urban regeneration.

  • Regenerating Liverpool Pier Head Waterfront: the Role of Urban Design
    City, Culture and Architecture 2015; 1(1): 21-38 ISSN: 2148-1938 (Print) ISSN: 2149-8202 (Online) DOI: 10.15340/2148193811851 Research Article Regenerating Liverpool Pier Head Waterfront: the Role of Urban Design Mohamed Fageir1*, Nicole Porter2, Katharina Borsi3 1 2 3 University of Nottingham, UK Abstract: This paper investigates the processes by which the regeneration of the historical Pier Head waterfront in Liverpool took place during the first decade of the twenty-first century. The research focuses on three key regeneration projects at Pier Head Waterfront, namely the Fourth Grace, the New Museum of Liverpool and Mann Island Development. Each of these projects has undergone a relatively different process and, hence, faced different challenges and produced different outcomes. This study is based on a series of lengthy interviews with key stakeholders closely linked with the regeneration of the waterfront, a review of project related documents including urban design policy and guidance, a substantial review of relevant news articles that were written throughout the period of the recent transformation of the waterfront, and numerous site visits. By understanding the peculiarities of the global forces that drive large scale developments and the local context in which they occurred at Pier Head, several insights regarding the process of regeneration emerge. Findings foreground the role of urban design in urban waterfront regeneration, illustrating that despite the complexity of managing change, urban design has the capacity to mediate between the local and global forces and the needs/ desires of investors and local communities. Urban design is also imperative for challenging the negative impact of globalisation on the urban landscape.

  • The Liverpool Black Experience
    14 The changing face of community participation: the Liverpool black experience THEME SECTION 4 by DAVID CLAY Overview The city of Liverpool has the longest established black community in Britain, concentrated in the Toxteth area. Here, ‘community participation’ has long been a reaction to racism or a fight for better services. My first experience of commu- nity mobilisation came in the early 1970s, when police failed walking distance of the docks.
