Liverpool set to approve Baltic Triangle car park
Planning officers have recommended the council greenlight the application from Lee Siadankay to demolish a warehouse off Jamaica Street, replacing it with a 216-space multistorey car park, offices and shops.
Liverpool City Council will weigh in on the application during its planning committee meeting on 11 October.
Designed by architect MCAU, the plans focus on a nearly 20,000 sq ft warehouse situated between Jamaica Street, New Bird Street, and Greenland Street.
This warehouse would be demolished to make way for the five-storey car park and an adjacent seven-storey office block. This building would have more than 23,800 sq ft of offices. Retail and hospitality space would sit on the ground floor of the MSCP and office building.
Council planning officers wrote: “The proposal offers a high-quality, mixed-use scheme that would lead to the redevelopment [of] a brownfield site, improving the appearance of the built environment and the future offer of the Baltic and, as such, would be a regeneration benefit to the local area.”
In addition to MCAU, the project team includes The Planning Studio, AEC Acoustics, Shape Engineer, SCP Transport Consultants, Collington Winter Environmental, and Rob Burns Heritage.
The application’s reference number with Liverpool City Council is 22F/1113.
Hopefully this developer will deliver, as this is a decent project and will benefit the Baltic which needs some activity in this location, meanwhile has the Norton Point site been sold yet, it has planning permission for 3 high-rise buildings.

LCC needs to stop approving developments and sort out the mess that exists with part completed blocks due to developer bankruptcies. Residents need to be protected.

Just what we need, another car park.

re Oct 5, 5.01pm, there are no other MSCPs at the Baltic Triangle, it would be a welcome facility, especially when current surface car parks get built on.

WOW. This is much needed and will improve the area. Good decision by LCC and hopefully they can start to approve more projects that come along.
