Who as kid couldn’t love this this…

South end lad eh!

I used to be fascinated by tenements. When I was a lad we had some family in Cartwright House in Vauxhall and I used to be petrified but very curious when going there. The kids all looked murderous but they had a good community going I think...you'd know best.

The waste chutes stuck in my mind for some reason.

crazy how most young people now don’t even know they excised especially with how many there was , myrtle gardens etc

The Liverpool Institute.
Love the architecture, but hated the place.
Imagine the boys pen, but with less warmth.

The Black Christ.

Are you a Liobian?

On another note, if you haven't been inside the Mersey Docks and Harbor building, make sure you do. Anyone can go in during the week and have a look around.

I remember going in as a child as my Granddad had his office in there.

The Black Christ.

Made by Arthur Dooley - a friend of the family. He was a member of the Knights of St. Columba when I was a kid.

Looking further afield but still Merseyside, the Dream in St Helens looks impressive.

Never been to it like.

Looks like a Pink Floyd album cover.

Beautiful sculpture. Scary when seen as a child though.

Magnificent
So Gothic
So Liverpool.

Both Cathedrals, although the Anglican shades it for me. Just love that building.

I wish they'd jib the Adelphi owners off and do something with that fine building. They'd have to completely gut it out but what a waste of a stunning building as it is. That has the potential to be one of the finest hotels around. Mind you, it's hardly on 5th Avenue.

Brittania. They've ruined a number of lovely hotels all over the UK
