Public inquiry finds in favour of �250m scheme
Date: 10th July 2008
The Secretary of State has approved a groundbreaking £250m plan to transform the former International Garden Festival site into a high quality residential community and waterside park.
Developers Langtree McLean were today granted permission to build 1308 apartments and 66 town houses on land at Otterspool, which has fallen into neglect since the 1984 festival.
The decision also paves the way for the restoration of 56 acres of public parkland including the Japanese and Chinese Gardens, which were described as the "jewels in the crown" of the International Garden Festival event.
Commenting on the decision John Downes, Managing Director of Langtree Group Plc, said: "Today's decision follows 4 years of hard work culminating in more than 100 consultation events, over 6,500 man-hours and a considerable financial investment.
"Working closely in partnership with Liverpool City Council, the local community and local partners we have devised plans for a mixed use development and urban park that will bring this derelict site back into productive use allowing the public access to a revitalised parkland already considered part of Liverpool's heritage."
Cllr Warren Bradley, leader of Liverpool City Council, said: "This is an important decision for the city of Liverpool and a victory for common sense. Liverpool City Council applauds the Secretary of State for coming to this decision.
"The site is currently a major blight on the local community and a considerable source of anti-social behaviour. Leaving it vacant after more than twenty years is simply not an option. The plans will ensure that this site is once again an asset that the city can be proud of and, importantly, can access once again.
"We're confident that Langtree McLean can offer a workable solution to the problems posed by the site and we look forward to seeing this scheme come to fruition."
