Lime Street Station

It had been a while since my last visit to Liverpool. There was a time when I used to joke that my 'local' pub was the one next to Anfield stadium, but those days are long gone. Responsibility will do that to you!

Anyway, it was with a slight degree of surprise that I exited Lime Street Station to see that the row of ugly shops and the dire towerblock that had been built in front of the old station had been demolished, replaced by a large 'plaza' of steps and ramps leading into the station. So one of the huge arches now fronts directly onto the street:



It's a great improvement, and nice to see the architectural mistakes of the past being rectified in this way.
