    PATH DEPENDENT AND RISK AVERSE: IS RETAIL PLANNING INHIBITED BY A CULTURE OF FEAR? Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by: Mark Davies Department of Geography and Planning School of Environmental Sciences University of Liverpool October 2019 i Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template ii Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template DECLARATION This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing that is the outcome of work done by, or in collaboration with others, except where specifically indicated in the text. It has not been previously submitted, in part or completely, to any university or institution for any degree, diploma, or other qualification. Signed: ______________________________________________________________ Date: _________________________________________________________________ iii Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template iv Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template ABSTRACT As new digital technology fundamentally changes the way people shop, retail firms are increasingly seeking to optimise their store portfolios so that they effectively support the provision of an omni-channel retail offer, which is leading to the decline of many traditional retail spaces. This thesis seeks to explore this issue, by considering why, in the face of such profound structural changes in retailing, the prevailing response of planners has been to reemphasise support for „town-centre-first‟, despite the fact that such an approach appears fundamentally misaligned with the issues that are driving decline today. Utilising a mixed methods approach, involving a detailed historical analysis of the evolution of retail planning in England and in-depth interviews with planners, this thesis seeks to understand why it is that town-centre-first continues to pervade as a strategic approach in retail planning.

  • Race and Radicalisation EJ Peatfield University of Liverpool
    Race and Radicalisation E J Peatfield University of Liverpool Race and Radicalisation: Examining Perceptions Of Counter-Radicalisation Policy Amongst Minority Groups in Liverpool 8 and 24. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Elizabeth-Jane Peatfield February 2017 1 | Page Race and Radicalisation E J Peatfield University of Liverpool Abstract This thesis critically analyses the UK Government’s current counter-radicalisation policy, focusing in particular on groups presented as vulnerable or susceptible to the drivers of radicalisation outlined within the counter-radicalisation policy Prevent (2011). Although there have been a number of studies looking at the effect of counter-radicalisation policy on Muslim communities in Britain, this study is unique in its kind, as it examines the impact of counter-radicalisation policy on non- Muslim minorities. This work draws attention to the linking of terrorism to socio- economically marginalised groups and the concomitant gaze of surveillance or suspicion directed towards those considered risky. Based on the evidence gathered, it is argued that the negative framing of communities based on race and class has linked them to the risk of radicalisation through the construction of counter- radicalisation drivers and vulnerabilities. To explore the intersectionality of race and class with assumptions embedded in counter-radicalisation policy, the research employed both quantitative and qualitative methodology to examinee minority communities in two areas of Liverpool. The research sought to gauge how much non-Muslim minorities knew about Prevent (2011) and the drivers identified in the document, alongside whether they believed they had been affected by counter-radicalisation/terrorism policy.

  • Liverpool Development Update
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2015 Welcome Welcome to the latest edition of Liverpool Development Update. If you need an indication of how far Liverpool has come from the dark days of the recession five years ago, you only have to look at the levels of investment pouring into the city today. Both 2014 and 2015 have seen significant jumps in construction activity both in the public and private sectors, with 2016 already looking to be on track to be as productive. I am particularly pleased to see developments creating premises which will allow businesses to start up and grow. Giving existing businesses the tools to help them grow and increase employment opportunities is just as important as creating space for new investments. In Liverpool, we are committed to making both happen. DPD Geopost, Novartis, and Eli Lily are all opening new facilities, while exciting new developments like “The Hangar” and “Invest:Speke” have attracted new tenants in advance of practical completion. With £784million worth of projects having completed since the start of this year, there remains £1.26 billion on site as at October 2015. The largest single project underway is the rebuild of the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, but I am happy to see that the City Centre residential market, so depressed for the last few years, has finally taken off again with several new schemes coming on stream. These will help to further establish the City Centre as a vibrant and colourful residential community. In the neighbourhoods, over £500 million worth of development activity FRONT COVER: is also underway.

  • Liverpool Local Plan Submission Draft January 2018 1 Introduction to the Local Plan 1 What Is a Local Plan? 1
    Submission Document SD1.0 Liverpool Local Plan 2013 -2033 Submission Draft May 2018 liverpool.gov.uk Foreword to the Liverpool Local Plan Liverpool is a growing city. Currently there are £14bn worth of regeneration projects on site or in the pipeline and in 2018 £1bn worth of schemes will be completed for a record fourth consecutive year. Set against this unprecedented activity, the city's population is expected to rise from 470,000 to 517,000 people by 2033. The consequences of this rise is how do you manage this growth and where. That is the key function of this Local Plan and after three years in the making it has identified the need to create 35,000 new homes and develop 370 acres of land for 38,000 new jobs. This Local Plan sets out the conditions for supporting this growth ± especially in key development zones from Baltic Triangle in the south to Ten Streets in the north and the waterfront in the west to Paddington Village in the east. The Local Plan is the key, statutory planning and development policy and this one covers more than detailed 100 policies designed to grow the city's economy and protect key spaces from now until 2033. The City©s first consultation on the draft plan began in early 2014 and was followed by more detailed consultation in October 2016 and the feedback, from these events which garnered some 2,100 comments from local residents, community organisations and business organisations, has been incorporated where possible. Consultation will continue before the plan is formally submitted to the Secretary of State at the end of March 2018.

  • LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE March 2019
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE March 2019 Welcome Welcome to the March 2019 edition of the Liverpool Development Update. As you will discover within these pages, Liverpool is in the midst of an unprecedented renaissance - with the City on course to attract over £1 billion in new developments for the 5th consecutive year! Indications are showing that both 2019 and 2020 are set to continue seeing such high levels of investment, bringing new homes; leisure, health and education facilities; and a mixture of offices/industrial and commercial space creating new jobs to support this city’s growing economy and rising population. Since I became Mayor in 2012, there has been over £6.3 billion invested by the public and private sectors across the City, with £3.27 billion of that (more than half) being invested in our neighbourhoods. In that time: 11,220 new homes have been built; Over 5,000 empty homes have been brought back into use; and 12.4 million square feet of floorspace has been built or refurbished to provide space for over 21,000 jobs. Encouragingly, 2018 saw several larger schemes begin that will underpin growth for the coming decade, in particular the first four residential schemes on the much anticipated Liverpool Waters, and we are making steady progress in getting ready to begin building the new cruise liner terminal and associated hotel development. Progress is also evident at the £1bn Paddington Village scheme, with its first four schemes now underway; and more due to start next year. In the residential sector, my original target to build 5,000 new homes has been surpassed, whilst the Council’s own ethical new housing company Liverpool Foundation Homes Ltd is now up and running with its first two FRONT COVER: schemes already on site.

  • LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2019
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2019 Welcome Welcome to the Autumn 2019 edition of the Liverpool Development Update. Our city is going through a period of exciting and rapid change. This is in large part fuelled by the £1bn a year investment drive which began in 2015 and looks set to continue through 2020. As a result we are seeing new homes; leisure, health and education facilities; as well as a mixture of offices/industrial and commercial space all creating new jobs to support this city’s growing economy and rising population. Since the Spring Development Update, much has happened in the city to accelerate the drive toward cleaner air for all and for a reduction in carbon emission to net zero by 2030. These are issues that could have a positive impact on developments across the city and we will look to highlight areas of best practice in future issues. Every scheme has its challenges, but as we develop our economy we have become more aware of the effect we have on the planet. FRONT COVER: Having recently declared a Climate Change Emergency we will be developing a strategy designed to reduce the impact of the city’s regeneration programme, as well as advance measures to develop a 1 low carbon economy. The decade ahead is going to shape the rest of this century in how we tackle climate change – and the only real way to 2 3 achieve that is for everyone to play their part. 1. PROPOSED: ARTIST’S CGI’S OF As we approach the end of the second decade of the 21st century, the PALL MALL EXCHANGE prospects for our city remain positive.

  • LIVERPOOL Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    LIVERPOOL Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide 0 Liverpool is one of the largest cities in the North West of England. Historically an important manufacturing city and a major global shipping hub, Liverpool has transitioned into an economy dominated by the services sector. As a result of its rich heritage as a major port, its 2008 status as the European Capital of Culture, and being the home of six UNESCO World Heritage areas, Liverpool has become an important tourist destination. Some 64 million people visited Liverpool in 2018, and it also moved up the rankings to become the 5th most visited destination for overseas visitors. This is supported by hotel occupancy data which shows that in the same year there was a near 2% growth. Liverpool is an important cruise port and will welcome more than 57 vessels, with 100,000 passengers and crew in the coming 12 months. Although activity remains reliant on the public sector, the city can boast favourable demographics, with a high percentage of the population under the age of 30. The retail landscape has been invigorated by the addition of new developments such as Liverpool One, which has transformed the city centre and substantially boosted the retail provision. The city now houses a range of international retailers, including: Apple, JD Sports, Victoria’s Secret, Arket, Zara, New Look and Topshop. LIVERPOOL Other high-profile additions, a large proportion of which are situated in Liverpool One, include Harvey Nichols, Michael Kors, Ted Baker, and The White Company, highlighting the city’s OVERVIEW enduring attractiveness. Liverpool city council remain committed to re-developing the heart of the city.
