Liverpool hit the headlines at this year\u2019s four-day international property festival, with Everton FC chief executive Denise Barret-Baxendale taking a central role in both the future home of the club and the development of a new City Centre station.<\/p>\n
Denise Barret-Baxendale confirmed that Everton FC has no option but to progress with a new home and that the stadium planned at Bramley-Moore Dock is crucial to the future of the club. According to the chief executive, the club is \u201cthe most confident it has ever been\u201d on securing the funding, even though costs have increased to around \u00a3500m.<\/p>\n
While positivity about funding and delivery of a new stadium abounds, they are keen to avoid a call-in for the planning application. The club is taking steps to reassure people that the design team are respecting the development\u2019s role in the waterfront\u2019s UNESCO World Heritage Status over concerns about the impact of the stadium and its potential capacity for up to 60,000.<\/p>\n
However, a lease agreement has already been completed with Peel L&P for Everton FC<\/a> to assume a 200-year lease on the dock, subject to planning permission, and completion of the new stadium has been pencilled in for 2023.<\/p>\n Although Goodison Park will be demolished, Barrett-Baxendale has said that the former stadium site represented \u201ca big opportunity for the football club to do something unique, with education, housing, retail, and healthcare all potential options\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Steve Rotheram, Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, has announced that the City Region has given Denise Barret-Baxendale the responsibility for putting together a team of experts from transport, business and the public sector to form a commission, whose remit will be to take forward all the key considerations in developing the new station.<\/p>\n The plan to connect the Liverpool City Region to HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail<\/a> was included in Transport for the North\u2019s Strategic Transport Plan earlier this year. The plan also included suggestions for a new station to accommodate more modern trains, increased passenger numbers with a view to becoming a world-class transport hub.<\/p>\n Rotherham stated, \u201cWhat we envisage is more than just a station and a world-class transport hub, it has the potential to be a destination in its own right, architecturally stunning and featuring leisure and recreation facilities, commercial, retail, high-quality office accommodation, residential facilities and much more.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Full connection to HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail would ensure that the Liverpool City Region would benefit from shorter journey times (Manchester to Liverpool would be reduced to 23 minutes) and increased passenger capacity, and according to Steve Rotheram boost the economy by \u00a315bn.<\/p>\n According to the Mayor of Liverpool, Joe Anderson the City will be seeking government funding to support delivery of the project, which is estimated to cost \u00a36bn including the cost of the track to connect to HS2 and take about ten years to complete.<\/p>\n Join us today at 2pm for our meet the developer live stream with Romal Capital’s founder Greg Malouf.<\/p>\n Learn about the latest progress on site at the Liverpool Waters master scheme and ask the developer any questions you might need answering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Liverpool hit the headlines at this year\u2019s four-day international property festival, with Everton FC chief executive Denise Barret-Baxendale taking a central role in both the future home of the club and the development of a new City Centre station.
