Housing plan for major Moorfields office building thrown out

Plans to transform a major office block into housing opposite one of Liverpool’s main train stations have been thrown out.

Despite undergoing a major refurbishment after a multi-million pound acquisition, office space at Centric House has lain dormant for a number of years. The imposing site had been potentially put forward as part of the answer to Liverpool’s ongoing housing issues. Stephen Oster, on behalf of Cert, said despite its best efforts, the firm had never been able to get a “sustainable level of occupancy” in the building and housing proposals would provide a “new chapter” for Centric House. Mr Oster added how the development of the site would make it an “asset to the area over the long term.”
