Lost 'Addams Family' building would have 'been in so many films' had it survived

A stunning building that once graced a Liverpool street would have been an asset to the city's film industry had it survived, it's been claimed.

Built in the late 19th century, Cope's Tobacco warehouse once stood on St Vincent Street in Liverpool city centre. Built in the Gothic Revival style of architecture, the foreboding building wouldn't not have looked out of place towering over a village in Transylvania.

The building was designed by English architect, John Douglas, who created over 500 buildings in Cheshire, North Wales, and northwest England. His other work designs included churches as well as shops, banks, offices, schools, memorials and public buildings.
