Plans for more than 60 new flats could “decimate” a community

Plans for more than 60 new apartments in north Liverpool could “decimate” the community, according to a charitable organisation.

Proposals have been put forward to Liverpool Council to build three new buildings containing up to 66 apartments on vacant land between Lancaster Street and Great Mersey Street in Kirkdale. The plans put forward by Great Mersey Developments would include three, four and six-storey buildings being constructed alongside associated parking.

The buildings would include 14 one-bedroom homes with a further 42 two-bed provisions. Concerns have been raised about the plans by Rotunda - an anchor charity based within five, Grade II listed Georgian terrace houses in Kirkdale. The charity is home to Rotunda College - an education provider specialising in flexible adult learning and career progression courses.
