	+ '''Liverpool Waters downscaled over World Heritage Site status fears''' ''Jul 28 2010 by David Bartlett, Liverpool Daily Post'' + + THE developer of the multi-billion pound Liverpool Waters project has been forced to scale it back over concerns it could threaten the city’s World Heritage Site status. + + Peel Holdings wants to regenerate the city’s northern docklands with a series of skyscrapers creating more than 25,000 jobs and 14,000 apartments in a £5.5bn development. + + Peel has now agreed no building on the Mersey waterfront will be higher than 15 storeys and eight skyscrapers have been removed from one of two clusters of tall buildings, after conservation watchdog English Heritage raised concerns. + + But a leaked document shows that despite the changes English Heritage still believes the project could be harmful to the “outstanding universal value” of the WHS. + + Top officials from English Heritage’s Advisory Committee will meet today to discuss how serious the threat is and what should be done. + + Last night Peel Holdings said it was confident it could reach a compromise with English Heritage ahead of submitting a planning application in the autumn. + + Peel are keen to avoid a formal objection from English Heritage as it would increase the chances of a public inquiry being called in to the scheme. + + The company’s Wirral Waters scheme on the other side of the Mersey will be considered by planners in the borough next week. + + Lindsey Ashworth, Peel’s development director, said English Heritage had initially raised concerns with the Wirral element but eventually a compromise had been found. + + “I think we will find a solution and some common ground, but that does not mean removing all the tall buildings,” he said. He said the company did not mind having had to reduce the number of tall buildings. + + “Over the years you fine tune these things. I think what we have got is a really nicely balanced scheme. We are 75% there with English Heritage.” + + A secret report to today’s meeting reveals English Heritage’s concerns about the Liverpool scheme. + + “The assessment outlined in this report concludes that the impact would be harmful to the significance of the WHS. + + “The developer will need to make further significant amendments to mitigate the harmful impacts of the current scheme and it is far from certain Peel will be prepared to do so,” it reads. + + When Peel announced its plans in 2007 the drawings featured dozens of skyscrapers including two landmark towers seen in the forefront of the picture above right. + + The new plans, seen by the Daily Post, no longer feature the towers or many other of the taller buildings. + + Instead the tall buildings have been located in two clusters. + One cluster starts at Princes Dock with a scaled down Shanghai Tower – named as such in the hope it will attract Chinese investment. + + The Shanghai Tower has been reduced to 55 storeys from between 60 and 65. + + The other cluster at Clarence Dock will feature seven skyscrapers instead of 15. + + The leaked English Heritage report shows how the national watchdog has had serious reservations for some time: “Committee agreed in January that the masterplan would cause significant harm to the outstanding universal value (OUV) of the WHS, the setting of listed buildings and the character and appearance of Stanley Dock conservation area. The proposals have been amended in response to our advice and a series of CABE (Commission for Architecture and Built Environment) design reviews.” + + The report states that in October 2009 English Heritage said: “The proposals for Clarence Dock and Central Docks will need to be carefully assessed to ensure that they do not compromise the OUV, authenticity and integrity to the WHS.” + + The committee said development should only be permitted if it could be clearly shown the universal value would not be compromised. + + “The case for tall buildings at Clarence Dock has not been made and impact on the OUV of the WHS and setting of a range of designated heritage assets would be harmful. + + “Serious consideration should be given to advising the removal of the proposed cluster from the masterplan.” + + Last night an English Heritage spokesman said: “We are in pre-application discussions with the developer and Liverpool City Council, as these papers are not in the public domain we are unable to comment further until a planning application has been lodged.” + -----

The projects are being exhibited at the World Expo in Liverpool’s dedicated pavilion. + + As the main sponsor Peel has contributed £100,000 towards the £3.5m it is costing to build and staff the pavilion for six months. + + Mr Ashworth said: "The firm of architects [is talking about] a substantial share in a building they would design. + + "China is like England, you are friends first and then do business. We have to keep coming here and showing face. + + "This particular architects (firm) are coming across to England to have talks with us.” + + He said the recession had come at a bad time for Liverpool and Wirral Waters but that he was confident the economy would pick up. + + "I would like to have had a partnership by now if we had still been in the boom. + + "Things will probably be rosier next spring. But what we can do at the moment is not give up, instead we must keep the momentum going. + + "We wanted to put in the planning request before we came here, but we have not agreed with English Heritage where all the buildings should be. + + "It was not the right thing to do to submit the planning the planning application when English Heritage are not happy with it.” + + He said he was hopeful a solution could be found. + + "English Heritage want it to happen, but not at the disturbance and loss of heritage. + + "They are concerned that we do not do anything that will steal the glory of the Three Graces." + + He said a historical study of the northern dock system had identified 80 separate pieces of heritage that should be preserved in the development. + + English Heritage can either object, support or be neutral. + + Mr Ashworth said the company liked to consult ahead of submitting major planning applications. + + "A strong objection would concern me and would mean that the Government Office North West would have to refer it to the Government." + -----

They will also include the demolition of some small redundant buildings as part of the works aimed at improving the area. + + The buildings to be repaired include the famous six-sided Victoria Clock Tower and the nearby Dockmaster’s Office, both built by Jesse Hartley at the river entrance to the Salisbury Dock in 1848. + + The tower showed the time for those on board arriving and departing vessels, and also contained a set of bells that rang out the high tides and gave warning of incidents. The two buildings, which are suffering from decay as a result of leaking roofs, will be made secure and wind and weather proof. + + A number of smaller buildings situated around the Clarence Graving Dock are also in poor condition and will be repaired. + + The works to the various buildings include general repairs to the roof areas and associated guttering, making windows and doors watertight and secure, repairs to internal stairwells and the removal of vegetation to external areas. + + Peel spokesman Ian Pollitt said: “Peel recognise the importance of preserving the dock area and these historic buildings, and the repair works undertaken will ensure they remain an asset to the city and its heritage, and a key part of the Liverpool Waters scheme”. + + The historic Salisbury Dock and Clarence Graving Dock both form part of the proposed Liverpool Waters development on the city’s waterfront. + The Clarence Graving Docks, opened in 1830, are one of the most important features of the Central Docks, and would form a centrepiece of the completed Liverpool Waters scheme. + + It was feared its location in the World Heritage Site “buffer zone” could prove problematic. + + But a new council planning blueprint will now allow tall buildings in Central Docks, while ensuring the waterfront’s world heritage status is protected. + + The report was ordered by Unesco after it raised concerns the historic waterfront was not being properly safeguarded. + + The aims of the blueprint are to protect key views of landmark buildings, help conserve historic buildings while positively encouraging new developments, and encourage the demolition of existing buildings which have a negative impact on the urban environment. + + Peel owns Mersey Docks and Harbour Company, which controls huge swathes of land on the banks of the Mersey and Liverpool John Lennon Airport. + + The planning application for the Liverpool Waters scheme is still waiting to be submitted because of the sensitivity of the area as a World Heritage Site. + + Liverpool Waters is itself part of an even bigger £50bn Atlantic Gateway strategy by developer Peel, which aims to regenerate the ports of Salford and Liverpool, and projects along the Manchester Ship Canal. + -----

Rather than lose the business, we are talking about relocating it to the Pier Head." + + It is hoped the plan would avoid the need for any grants to be paid back as it would only be a temporary move. + + Once Peel's terminal had opened, the cruise liners would return to a base further up the river. + + Peel's terminal is already fully designed and located near the proposed 60-storey Shanghai Tower in the Liverpool Waters Scheme. + + The tower would be built on the west side of the Princes Half Tide Dock off Waterloo Road with the cruise terminal nearby on the banks of the river. + + The company has been speaking about their plans at this week’s MIPIM development conference in Cannes on the French Riviera where the City of Liverpool has hosted a stand. + ----

Line 5:	Line 6:
- During the last century, towns and cities prospered when they had the benefit of docks for their trade and industry. On a world-wide basis these once wonderful assets have fallen into disrepair and dereliction due to trade patterns and transportation methods changing to meet our modern "computer" age lifestyles. Central Docks at Liverpool and Birkenhead Docks at Wirral are classic examples of such a decline. However, this does not mean that the docks should cease to operate, indeed quite the opposite. For them to survive, consolidation of the dock system must take place so that they can operate efficiently and regenerate with new uses. Done successfully a new breath of life can be brought to both Liverpool and Wirral waterfronts and the docks can once again be a wonderful and thriving environment for the needs of this century.	+ “When Peel Holdings purchased the Mersey Docks and Harbour Company a few years ago I stood on the waterfronts of both Liverpool and Wirral with the company Chairman and the view in many ways created a feeling of sadness because these docks that had been the lifeblood of the region about a century ago had fallen into such dereliction. They had been abandoned and forgotten, the City had turned its back on something that had helped make Liverpool the great place that it is.
Line 7:	Line 8:
	+ The post-Panamax ships and containerisation that the world has adopted to distribute its goods are so big that the River Mersey is simply not deep enough in the estuary for them so the shipping trade has had to move to deeper water. Thus, some parts of Birkenhead Docks and Liverpool Docks will never come back into effective port uses because of this and it’s these areas of land that we are working up schemes for to bring them back into use for the needs of this century and to make them once again contribute towards the local economy like they used to. + + The forefathers of Liverpool Docks were pioneers of their time and they had the will and enthusiasm to drive things forward against so many others who saw fit to put their efforts into undermining and criticising most of their ideas that involved change. Thankfully, the forefathers had the determination to turn their visions into reality and delivered something that we are all very grateful for. What would they think if they saw the land now in its abandoned state? + + We are now well over a century later and Peel has come along with its own ideas and we are to share these with the people of Liverpool this Friday and Saturday at our exhibition being held at a local shop 9 Whitechapel in the city centre located between the Met Quarter and Lord Street and we look for support from the majority rather than resistance from the minority. + + When the Three Graces where proposed which involved the filling in of three docks, the newspaper reports show that there was an outcry about this. If we took the preservation of Liverpool’s wonderful heritage back to its origins, we would have to demolish the Three Graces and re-open these three old docks the remains of which are probably still there underneath. Of course this would be ridiculous because we all love the Three Graces. Time and needs had moved on for these three docks and the Three Graces were built and time has moved on now for us to consider redevelopment of the many acres of disused land. + + We have a drawing that is over one hundred years old prepared by one of the famous engineers at the time, probably Jesse Hartley, that shows an increase in the height of buildings moving north alongside the Three Graces. The Liver Building was the tallest building in Europe at the time it was built and had it not been on the limits of technology, it would certainly have been built higher. + + Our vision that we call Liverpool Waters is to create a new living and working environment on this redundant dockland with beautiful high rise and high quality buildings and make this part of the waterfront spectacular again and bring back into use, but this time creating local jobs for all ages and making the waterfront accessible to the public. + + Finding and agreeing a way of moving Liverpool Waters positively through the planning system has not been without its challenges. + + From Peel’s point of view we obviously want a workable planning consent but given this will be the largest planning application in the UK, it’s not been easy to find a way through and there are no similar precedents to learn from. This project has genuinely been Heritage led given that the site is either in the World Heritage Site or in what is called its buffer zone, so that has been an added challenge. + + However it’s in everybody’s best interests that we get this right and given that it’s a £5.5 billion investment in Liverpool over the next few decades providing tens of thousands of new jobs we have had lots of well thought through advice from Liverpool Council, Liverpool Vision, Government Office, English Heritage, CABE, this list goes on. This advice and guidance has been so helpful in finding a way forward and Peel really appreciates the time, effort and expertise all have put into this. The will to move this great city forward is still there. + + Our proposed planning application route is to submit an ‘outline’ planning application for the redevelopment of the whole of the site which will provide significant detail in terms of scale, height, mass, etc in the form of what we call ‘parameter plans’. This will provide sufficient detail to enable key issues to be considered and determined such as the impact on the setting of listed buildings, impact on the World Heritage Site and Conservation Areas, strategic views, views into and out of the site, impact on the skyline, etc. + + Peel has a strong track record in delivering major high quality and award winning developments around the UK within the confines of the existing planning system. Schemes include MediaCityUk in Salford which has just been given Breeam Community Status, Gloucester Quays, the Trafford Centre and Liverpool John Lennon Airport. These schemes have not only provided genuine benefits to the areas around them by employing local people and bringing high quality development, but they have also attracted investment. + + For a city to reach international status and compete on a world platform it needs a good airport and a good port to support it. + + We have made great inroads into achieving this to support our Liverpool Waters proposals. + + Peel has committed significant resources to Liverpool Waters project and other projects along the Mersey corridor and Atlantic Gateway. The scale of investment in transport, energy and waste, and development projects is huge – it demonstrates a long term commitment by Peel to the future growth of the region and this commitment is now reflected in the North West Regional Strategy which Peel believes will become the blueprint for sustainable economic growth in the northwest. + + This investment is a demonstration of Peel’s confidence in the deliverability of the scale and ambition of the proposals. Put simply, Peel would not be spending significant sums of money at this time unless it was fully intending to bring the project forward as soon as possible. It would have been easy for Peel to ‘mothball’ Liverpool Waters, as many developers have done to their projects elsewhere, and come back to them when the economy improves. Instead, Peel has maintained its commitment. + + We are always asked the question, when will works start on site if planning permission is granted. Well, the chairman has a saying that applies here – DPP – Determination, Perseverance and Patience. + + It has taken Peel a long time to establish an effective presence in the Northwest and it’s taken a lot of effort and risk to get where we are. I have worked for Peel for over 20 years now and I genuinely believe that we have made a large contribution to the prosperity of the region and we have lots more fuel in the tank to do much more if we are allowed to. + + Every decade the economy seems to crash in some way and we have to suffer a recession and it takes some difficult decisions and strategies to find a way through and survive and no lifelines are thrown out to us like the banks have been given. + + We are not immune from the effects of this recession but will continue to soldier on as we have always done to find a way through and start works on site with our projects. + + The public will begin to notice immediate improvements around the site towards the middle of this year when proposed works to repair the Bascule Bridge and reopen the road link between Waterloo Road and Regent Road will be completed. A series of works are also proposed to seek to repair a number of historic buildings and structures on the site, particularly towards the north of the site. + + One thing is for sure without planning permission we can’t do anything meaningful within the boundary of Liverpool Waters so getting public support this Friday and Saturday who ultimately get behind the Councillors is vital. + + The final decision of course rests in the hands of Government Office and they are more likely to reach an early positive decision if we get it right and Liverpool Council see fit to recommend Liverpool Waters be approved. + + Time will tell!”
