Liverpool's Chinatown Site: From Dump to Dream
Liverpools Chinatown residents grapple with a neglected site on Great George Street, once a promised new Chinatown project, now a dumping ground. After the sites owner went into administration, Liverpool City Council bought it for £10 million, aiming to build housing. However, locals like Frank Greer, whos lived nearby for 30 years, prefer the open wasteland as it was better than the current eyesore hiding fly-tippers, fires, and intruders. The council plans to add CCTV, regular checks, and public space upgrades, spending £39,564 so far, with £275,000 left for improvements like stone lions from the Chinese consulate.
