New Everton Stadium

Yes, know for a fact the waterfront is an absolute mess with multiple landowners. Around the Albert Dock/Pier Head is, anyway.

The approach to the finish line in the Liverpool Half Marathon at Canada Boulevard / Pier Head requires permission from four land owners who are the Dock Estate, Canal And Rivers Trust, Liverpool Museum and LCC. It's a tangled web of difficulty along the whole waterfront so I can see it being difficult to resolve, unless of course there is political will for the project to gain traction.

The cruise terminal has just been given the go-ahead for a £1m spend on detailed design after acceptance of the proposals. There is a will to improve the whole area, regardless of outside intervention. Joe even said so himself.
 
It was all agreed a while back.

Everton's proposal was to revive the idea of a "football quarter" which was originally proposed for Stanley Park.

The plan includes a stadium, museum, shops, bars and restaurants as well as a hotel.

Peel have to re-jig their original plans which is causing the delay.
The reason for this is that Moshiri has "partners" that are willing to fund the whole lot. Not just Everton's part but Peel's too.
Peel are having to re-cost their side of the project and when they know how much it will take and the figures are agreed with the funding partners then an announcement will be made.

As far as the stadium is concerned, in the words of someone very close to it all: "F---ing awesome!"
Not just the best stadium in the country but an iconic building. Think Sydney Opera House, Guggenheim Museum, etc.
People will come just to visit the stadium even when there isn't a game. Hence the village theme to keep them there and spending money.

Source: Can't tell. Won't tell.

From another source (not too sure about this one): the stadium will be like Lucas Oil stadium but in a way that is sympathetic to the Liverpool skyline.

Make of it what you will people. I'm not going to justify my comments nor am I going to answer questions. Too much at stake.

On Bramley Moore Docks.
 
So this is why when Peels Lindsey Ashworth is criticised for lack of movement on Liverpool Waters he can barely contain himself and comes out with "2017....2017 is gonna be a massive year for Liverpool Waters" ?

If this is true, nothing will ever be the same again.

EVER!
 

From the outside, Lucas Oil Stadium looks like a 1950's youth custody facility.

Pleasant enough inside.

I have been there. It is one of the ugliest things built anywhere, ever. The whole exterior is mis-proportioned. It doesn't feel like it was designed by humans for humans. I'd absolutely hate it if we went for anything remotely resembling it.
 
Very costly and will be opposed by English Heritage and UNESCO. Would be a long, difficult planning process. Not saying it is impossible but be very brave & risky to take that on.

Who cares about UNESCO? We tell them what we're doing, they tell Liverpool they'll lose their status, we do what we want, UNESCO remove WHS. Whats the biggie? Joe said himself in public that he can't prevent funding on this scale cause of a status that really doesn't add anything to Liverpool past Bureaucracy.

Plus filling it in, will be costly yes, but no more costly that the filling in of the Liverpool 2 ports and there will be silt and material there that can be dredged for use as a proportion of infill.

Not that any of this matters anymore of course.
