LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2018 LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2018 Welcome Welcome to the 2018 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 6th 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 £5.7 billion invested by the public and private sectors across the city, with just short of £3 billion of that (more than half) being invested in our neighbourhoods. In that time: 9,700 new homes have been built; Over 5,000 empty homes have been brought back into use; and 12.3 million square feet of floorspace has been built or refurbished to provide space for over 19,000 jobs. Encouragingly, 2018 has seen 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 two 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. The new company will be responsible for building and refurbishing an additional 10,000 homes over the coming 1 years, many of which will be targeted at people who often have difficulty finding the kind of home which suits their needs and budget. 2 3 As we approach the end of the second decade of the 21st century, the prospects for our city remain positive.

  • Liverpool Development Update
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE November 2016 Welcome Welcome to the latest edition of Liverpool Development Update. When I became Mayor of the city in 2012, I said that Liverpool’s best days were ahead of it. If you consider the levels of investment being seen across the city today in 2016, my prediction is now ringing true. Since the start of 2012, we have seen over £3.8 billion worth of investment which has brought new businesses, new homes, new schools, and new and improved community and health facilities to Liverpool. We have seen the creation of nearly 15,000 job spaces, many of which will be filled with new jobs to the city. We have also created thousands more construction jobs. There is more good news. Several major new schemes are now in delivery mode. I am pleased to see rapid progress on Derwent’s Liverpool Shopping Park at Edge Lane, whilst Project Jennifer is now well underway with construction about to commence on its new Sainsburys and B&M stores. In addition, Neptune Developments have started work on the Lime Street Gateway project, and I can also report that work is underway on the first phase of the Welsh Streets scheme that will now see many of the traditional terraces converted to larger family homes. Meanwhile, some of the new schemes have started under the Strategic Housing Delivery Partnership which will build a further 1,500 new homes and refurbish another 1,000 existing ones. Plans for new schemes continue to be announced. The Knowledge Quarter is to be expanded with a new £1billion campus specialising in FRONT COVER: research establishments, whilst we are now also seeking to expand the Commercial Office District with new Grade A office space at Pall Mall which this city so vitally needs.
