Tower block of flats to be built after building demolished

A former bank building housing an upholstery business in north Liverpool is to be demolished to provide land for new apartments.

Members of Liverpool Council’s planning committee have given the go-ahead for the knocking down of the Cooper’s Reupholstery building on the junction of Netherfield Road North and Kirkdale Road to be replaced with a tower up to six storeys high. The block will provide 49 new apartments with associated car parking and access.

Documents made available ahead of the meeting revealed the plans put forward by Erin Strategic Land Limited would occupy the site which is undeveloped around the business with several mature trees interspersed throughout. The site slopes upwards from Netherfield Road North along Mark Street and downwards from Mark Street to Everton Valley.
