Planning submission later this year for £1bn King Edward project
KEIE Limited and Beetham have released latest designs for the emerging King Edward project in Liverpool.
The image of the £1bn development, viewed from the Wirral shoreline, illustrates the scale of the project with a 50-storey plus tower.
Hugh Frost of Beetham said: “Our thinking will continue to evolve as we head towards a Q3 submission for our masterplan, but this image lets the market know that we are intent on delivering a scheme of international significance.”
The CGI by scheme architects Brock Carmichael, has been produced for a key presentation to investors, end-users and their advisors at MIPIM next month.
Frost said: “We are briefing a select group of guests at MIPIM at a private event and have invited delegates from across the global property market. Our ambition is capturing people’s imagination, and we will continue to drive the scheme forward at pace.
Project architect Chris Bolland of Brock Carmichael. “What you see here shows our confidence that going beyond 50 storeys is achievable and desirable and our discussions to date with the city council have been highly constructive.”
The project team said it remains ‘on target’ for the submission before Easter of a detailed planning application for a ‘pathfinder’ tower of 26 storeys. The tower would anchor the north west corner of the 8-acre development zone and put down a marker for the whole development.
