This innovative new building will enhance the extraordinary blend of the old and new buildings which forms part of Liverpool’s distinctiveness. It lies in the heart of the Baltic Triangle close to Wapping Warehouse. The scheme offers 257 spacious apartments in a mix of 1-3 bed units including duplexes. All apartments have excellent outward views over the city or the waterfront. There is a basement car park for 70 vehicles. Cycle spaces are provided for every apartment. The building provides an interesting and varied silhouette on all three wings which rise up from 11 to 16 storeys. The facades take visual cues from the warehouse typologies within the area and have a formal expressed frame forming a gridded façade. Vertically stacked recessed balconies or staggered cantilevered balconies provide amenity space for each apartment and reference the vertical bays, and recessed balconies, echo the hoist slots of the warehouses.
