PLANNING | Monarch’s Quay phase two heads Liverpool list

YPG’s application for an Interpretation Centre and a six-storey apartment block at Monarch’s Quay is the main project that will go before Liverpool City Council’s planning committee on 24 April.

The proposals form the second application in the Monarch’s Quay masterplan to come forward, following the controversial granting of consent last year for a call centre to be operated by The Contact Company, which is run by Liverpool City Region chairman Asif Hamid.

The interpretation centre comprises meeting and interpretation space at lower and upper ground floors, with three floors of offices above. The 11,400 sq ft block is intended as a gateway into the Monarch’s Quay development, reflecting the existence of the grade two-listed hydraulic tower on the opposite side of the Queens-Wapping Bridge.

The multi-storey car park originally slated to be part of phase two has not been included in the application.
