Situated along the River Mersey in Liverpool, King’s Dock underwent a substantial redevelopment in 2008, transforming a former dock into a versatile space that now encompasses leisure, residential, and conference facilities. This development, part of the Port of Liverpool, serves as a noteworthy example of brownfield regeneration. Among its offerings are the M&S Bank Arena, an Exhibition and Convention Centre spanning 38,000 sq ft, a 1,450-space multi-storey car park, and three hotels—all under the full freehold ownership of the City Council.

Nestled in Liverpool City Centre, the 7.6-acre site is a collaborative effort between the Liverpool City Council and the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, actively seeking investment partners and end users. The project invites various possibilities, including residential-led mixed-use development with potential ancillary uses such as leisure, retail, and office spaces. With outline planning slated for early 2024, the project anticipates a development value exceeding £200 million and aims to commence development from 2023 onwards. This venture represents a step towards the revitalization of Liverpool’s waterfront, grounded in practical development goals and urban renewal.
