An Alternative Scheme For Liverpool St Station
['Henrietta Billings']
Spitalfields Life
An Alternative Scheme For Liverpool St StationHenrietta Billings, Director of SAVE Britain’s Heritage asks if the demolition and tower scheme is the only way to pay for station improvements at Liverpool St, as Network Rail claim.
Thanks to a number of highly controversial planning applications, Liverpool St Station is at the centre of a raging debate over how we fund essential upgrades to public buildings.
50 Liverpool St, the Gothic revival masterpiece painstakingly built as part of the eighties conservation project, would be demolished, and the works would cause years of significant disruption to passengers.
Please add your voice by submitting your views on the Network Rail/Acme scheme and the alternative vision before 10th February.
