A major development at Liverpool’s historic Festival Gardens site is expected following years of preparatory works.
The project is set to be one of the largest in the north and initially proposed in the region of 1,500 new homes on derelict land between Dingle and Otterspool. However these plans were shelved in 2022 with Liverpool City Council confirming that it was going back to the drawing board.
The authority had previously entered into an exclusivity agreement with development firm Ion which had produced a draft residential masterplan for the site. But this agreement expired in March 2021 with the council announcing that it was to carry out an almost year-long review of the site.
