A new 222-meter (727-foot) mixed-use high-rise designed by SimpsonHaugh has been proposed as the centerpiece of a major waterfront redevelopment in Liverpool, and if completed would surpass Liverpool’s current tallest building, West Tower, which rises to 140 meters.
The 70-story building will house a five-star hotel across its first 23 floors, providing 212 guest rooms, with the upper levels containing 563 luxury residences. Amenities for guests and residents will include restaurants, bars, fitness facilities, meeting and banqueting spaces, and a rooftop terrace.
The project forms part of a broader waterfront master plan that could deliver ten buildings, including additional residential high-rises, two hotels, Grade A office space, an arts venue, co-working spaces for technology businesses, and new food and beverage destinations.
Demolition work on the site is expected to begin this spring, with the full master plan scheduled for public consultation ahead of a planning submission later this year.
