£30m plans could create 'new gateway' to city centre

A pre-application has been submitted to Liverpool City Council to transform a neglected plot of land in a move that could create a new £30m 'gateway' to the city centre.

Sourced Development Group is behind the plans for Carlton Court, which would regenerate a derelict plot on West Derby Road in Tuebrook into "modern homes".

If approved, the development would comprise 123 one and two-bed apartments and two duplexes alongside mixed-use co-working and retail space.

Sourced managing director Joanne Waller said: "We are generating another gateway into Liverpool city centre which will produce hundreds of new jobs and apprenticeships as we transform an abandoned wasteland into a bustling and beautiful residential neighbourhood.

"While using original elements to inspire our design, the finished project will be an eye-catching development which will play a key role in the regeneration of the area.

"We’re looking forward to working with the city council, local councillors and stakeholders to create a scheme which everyone can be proud of."
