One the city’s oldest streets is undergoing a “renaissance” as it reinvents itself.
Castle Street dates back to the 13th century when it stood as one of the original seven streets of Liverpool. Named after the former Castle of Liverpool, the famous street later became the heart of Liverpool’s financial district.
Reminders of its history can still be seen in the striking listed buildings and banks that have now closed their doors. Earlier this year, plans were put forward to transform the old Bank of England building into a luxury bar and restaurant and the former NatWest Bank into a 92 bedroom hotel.
