A few photo's from 9th June 2012 of the Central Village Development - Liverpool.
The project is gathering pace, the cut-through of the old Lewis's store is well under way.
And the new Multi Storey car park is nearly finished, still a long way to go....

More Information here.... Central Village Liverpool.

Still constructing 2 more apartment blocks.



They have also started building more houses - so it looks as though they are going to complete the remaining phase. This will be really good when complete all the way up the riverside.

I like the Trinity project and with London having the Olympics and Glasgow the Commonwealth Games, Manchester Metrolink expansion...there is a decent amount of activity.

What happens after that though?

Is this the last of the pre-doom consrtuction?
