It's about my Liverpool Photo Walk.

Now we'll travel into Liverpool city centre to our starting point. The standard Photo Walk starts at 10:30am or 2pm

I love architecture, old and new and these libraries are each remarkable in their own way. Can you identify them? So let's travel now into the city centre to our first library. Our first library was established in 1653

Railway station and bridge have been compromised by the construction

Know what you think.

Before we enter, I have two important pieces of information: First, there's been a name change. It was: The Museum of Science and Industry now it's: The Science and Industry Museum and the second thing is: in mid-2021, the museum is being renovated. There's a multi-million pound restoration project in progress, so many parts of the museum are closed, including the Grade 1 listed Liverpool Road station, the world's oldest surviving terminal railway station

Area and we get to solve a couple of them, for instance who is the princess after whom princess road was named? others remain unsolved.

Construction sites, planned, in progress

I went on a tour on my Brompton bike around Liverpool's construction sites

planned, in progress, completed or stalled. It was an eye-opener, or as we say in German, es war ein 'Aha-Erlebnis' it. German 'aha!' experience

Current and future construction projects

Building Boom

Our cycle ride to view construction projects will take us north on Wilmslow Road

along the so-called Oxford Rd corridor and into the heart of Manchester city centre. We'll look at plans for the Toast Rack, visit a new groundscraper and on this site, I'll conjure up an architecturally significant building, constructed in 1911 and needlessly destroyed in 1974

I've flown from here to New York

A many times, including via thomas cook airlines, now sadly gone.

Other airlines are opening up with new routes, including Aer Lingus, I'd love to take that flight.

Quarter that became New York for film shoots and the roads in Trafford Park with New York-style street names
