How on earth did the regeneration of the Albert Dock get the go ahead back in the day?

That’s how I see it. There is too much to lose with the regeneration of this area creating thousands of jobs for it not to go ahead.

From Historic England... "The proposals would significantly affect a World Heritage Site, which has the highest level of heritage protection and is internationally significant."
As if anyone else in the world apart from Historic England care about filling in a dock that no one outside of Liverpool is even aware of.

This will create thousands of jobs, but I bet that a high percentage of the millions of visitors to Liverpool don’t visit or as you say know about that derelict area.
In any event, the proposal will protect the dock so it can be re-excavated one day when we move to a new ground.....
Portsmouth has historic docks, but the Spinnaker Tower got through:
Just a publicity stunt.

Probably they don’t have RS supporters say on the board of HE in this area. But I agree that is more an eyesore, totally out of keeping with its surroundings then our stadium.
Well it wasn't due to all those Heritage organisations pouring millions of pounds into the pot
Edit; who did pay for it?

I can answer that as I have intercepted a transmission. Might take a few days to get a reply but to be honest they seem pretty confident...

I emailed them and asked 3 questions
1. Who funds them. Answer is department of digital, culture,media and sport.
2. Who sits on the committee and their responsibilities? Committees alway hate that question as like in this situation the sign off on statements etc under the name of a committee and therefore can hide behind their woeful decisions. They didnt answer.
3. Wondering what have HE done for the docklands in all the years it lay neglected and idle?They just answered that with a link to their general statement that didnt answer the question.
I knew I wouldnt get an answer to question 2.
. I will try again.
if they are a govt funded quango I think the should be subject to FOI requests for things like the makeup of the committeeI emailed them and asked 3 questions

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
Not being from Liverpool I know nothing of these docks except that the new stadium will be in class location for getting the ferry as a foot passenger over from Dublin.. are the docks used? Unused? Are they a tourist attraction? Did anyone really care about what was happening at the docks before the planning application went in?
