A former girls' school site could house a major new multi storey building as part of Liverpool’s growing innovation district.
Sciontec, which owns and manages Liverpool Science Park, has lodged plans to construct a new eight storey building on land formerly used by Archbishop Blanch Girls School in Paddington Village. Proposals put forward to Liverpool Council said the firm would seek to construct a facility to provide office space across seven floors for research and development.
A co-working area and wellness studio have also been slated as part of the proposition put forward by Sciontec, which will be considered by councillors on Tuesday at Liverpool Town Hall. A report as part of the planning application, has detailed how the seven-storey building would be in a “cleared and vacant highly prominent plot located within a central position on the northern periphery of Paddington Village (Central), adjacent to Mount Vernon Road.”
