This project takes a large scale urban design approach to creating a new active part of the city circuit through unique reuse of former railway arches to create a new linear park, with four buildings responding to the former industrial setting.
The project will see 507 homes built alongside railway lines just north of the city centre and east of Bramley Moore Dock, where we are working on the delivery of the Everton stadium on Bramley Moore Dock.
The development includes 147 one-bed units, 330 two-beds and 30 three-bed homes designed in an industrial style, reminiscent of this area of Liverpool. Each building will deliver its own internal courtyard for social space, markets and events with building heights keeping to a maximum of 11 storeys.
Redundant railway arches and subterranean tunnels located on two of the plots will be repurposed to bring more than 10,000 sq ft of intriguing, eye catching commercial space to the new city centre destination. A 200-metre linear park also forms part of the joint venture’s vision for the site, creating space for walking and relaxing whilst ensuring the four separate buildings feel connected and coherent.
"Our vision for Love Lane creates a new piece of Liverpool’s pedestrian circuit by reusing historic brick railway arches in the northern edge of the city core, with cafes, bars, restaurants, and other leisure uses to create a district with special character and vibe, all linked together by a linear park.”
