** For the avoidance of doubt, this is not the site on the cityside of Jamaica Street being developed by Pinnacle. That thread can be found here - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1821680 **

This thread is for a site in the Baltic Triangle, bounded by Norfolk Street, Watkinson Street, and Simpson Street. The site currently houses a vacant industrial shed.

The development will house 100 studio apartments, and was granted planning permission by the Planning Committee on 23rd June 2015.

This is the second part of a three phase development, with planning permission already granted to construct a building on the site immediately opposite on Simpson Street, to provide 156 student flats, and 12 office spaces, in a building up to 9 storeys. It is envisaged that the residents of the Phase 2 development will be able to use the facilities of the Phase 1 development, adding to the amount of street activity as people come and go. Phase 1 has its own thread here - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1825101 The third phase is a part 12/part 20 storey building further down Norfolk Street, fronting Chaloner Street, which has its own thread here - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1846087

From the Planning Explorer -

Application Number - 15F/0557
Site Address - Land between Norfolk Street, Watkinson Street and Simpson Street, Liverpool L1
Proposal - To erect 9 storey apartment building containing 100 studio apartments (Use Class C3a) with ground floor foyer, flexible lounge space, cycle, plant and bin storage.
Applicant - Baltic Development Ltd
http://northgate.liverpool.gov.uk/P...ins/Liverpool_WIP/Menus/PL.xml&DAURI=PLANNING

The applicant is listed as Baltic Developments Ltd, however we know the developer is actually the Elliot Group, also known as Lawless, who are also behind Artesian House, as well as the Park Lane/Heap's Rice Mill, and Wolstenholme Square plans. Nothing should be read into Elliot Group or Lawless not being named as an applicant, as it is not unusual for developers to use different applicant names for different developments.
