The ECHO has taken a look inside a pair of abandoned historic banks in the centre of Liverpool, which are set to be transformed into restaurants and hotels.
The former NatWest Bank and the old Bank of England building are both located on Castle Street, in the shadow of the town hall. The stretch is home to some of the grandest and oldest buildings in the city which are now occupied by restaurants, bars, hotels and serviced apartments.
The two properties have been acquired by JSM Group, a property investment firm which owns large swathes of the city, including numerous venues on Concert Square.
