Plans to revive abandoned historic University of Liverpool buildings

An application has been made to bring two historic University of Liverpool buildings back to life.

After laying dormant for a number of years, the university has submitted plans to Liverpool Council to repurpose two of its earliest surviving purpose-built teaching sites back into use. According to planning documents, the University of Liverpool is seeking to fully refurbish the Derby and Hartley Buildings on Brownlow Street to rehouse its School of Environmental Sciences.

The revamp is part of the university’s £1bn masterplan vision for its facilities across the next 15 years. The plans would include the construction of extensions to the existing buildings for plant and access facilities and development of a campus car park with 64 new spaces to be provided across two levels.
