A plan for hundreds of new flats represents an “exciting opportunity” for one of Liverpool's iconic buildings.
Proposals to transform Audley House - the home of TJ Hughes on London Road for almost a century - into almost 200 new properties was given the green light by Liverpool Council this morning. The famous building was created in phases between 1889 and 1913 and the discount department store has operated from it since 1927.
Having initially been the subject of a plan for 250 apartments, proposals for 199 were signed off by the local authority’s planning committee today. The plans come from Vision International Group Limited. The redesign will retain most of the building’s existing character, including its iconic tower.
