Liverpool Development Plans 2017

Liverpool is enjoying some real momentum at the present time and there are new development and investment opportunities coming to light every day. Placemaking remains very high on the agenda for all parties and the private and public sector partnerships are working well together. The region has never worked so well together as is evident from the way that the Northern Powerhouse continues to pave the way for UK devolution..

We have a panel ready for you that will provide you with some useful market data, development intelligence and an insight into the region’s investment potential.

The Council in this discussion will talk about some proposed schemes and the rationale behind some of the City’s development and regeneration decisions.

Tim Heatley is the Founder and the face of Capital and Centric; a private developer with an eye for creative schemes and regeneration and despite their tender years C&C already have a wealth of experience and track record in delivering quality residential and mixed use schemes throughout the North West.
