A car sales and scooter centre that has stood in North Liverpool for decades is to make way for new homes.
Fazakerley Garage on Longmoor Lane, which is also home to the Scooter Centre, is to be demolished in favour of 31 new properties after securing planning permission from Liverpool Council. A meeting of the local authority’s planning committee was told that 13 one bed flats, 13 two bed flats and five three-bed townhouses are to be constructed on the site that has operated for around 60 years.
Agents on behalf of applicant Brack Group told councillors that the scheme was first mooted back in 2018 but “couldn’t stack up”. It was said that the owner of the site was looking to retire and as the covid-19 pandemic took hold, the prospects of a sale began to diminish.
