New Everton Stadium

I remember reading on here a couple of months ago that Dan Meis had been told to ramp things up by Keith Harris, I also read in the Echo around the same time that Dan Meis was going to be visiting Liverpool twice a month. Then DBB announced EFC were to appoint a Stadium Project Manager. I wonder when any of this is going to come to fruition?

Can't be too far away if they're hiring a project manager. Don't know many organisations who would pay someone to manage a project that hasn't kicked off.

"As is always the case in these matters; 'I heard from someone involved in Everton' that the delay is purely down to engineering and issues with the silt/bedrock/water table and coming up with a cost effective solution. My own experience of civil and structural engineers is that if something needs doing, then doing it thicker, deeper, stronger than it will ever need to be 'just in case' is often the way(and usually telling the architect that their solution is not enough) and therefore it is usually a lot more expensive. I would imagine that they are trying to get the costs down as much as possible - not a simple or quick task when building essentially in a river. Who is engineering this? This is where the likes of Arup earn their money as their solutions are usually elegant and match or even improve the architect's ambition."

Have to say I always wondered about filling the dock in and building on it.

We are using Buro Happold for the civals.

Think the issue is getting the funding rather then filling the docks in.
