Some of the children from our half term Playscheme have spent the week designing, drawing and painting the walls to cheer up our empty office corridor. We think it looks cheerful and inviting and we are so pleased with the final design. We thank them for their hard work, talent and enthusiasm :) Before, During and After the Emergency Holding Works: The Former Lending Department in Pictures20/2/2015 Before, During and After the Emergency Holding Works: The Former General Reading Room in Pictures3/2/2015 The emergency holding works are almost at an end. The building will now enter a period of drying out, ventilating and awaiting the next stage of works. The building will be assessed regularly to identify potential leaks, the return of rot and the success of the work carried out. We have now entered the 'design stage' where we will appoint our Design Team (including an Architect) and develop the physical plans for the building. We hope you enjoy the photographs-we will start to share 'then and now' images of the building from next week to show you just how much has been achieved in such a short amount of time and with a limited budget. Ronnie Hughes from 'A Sense of Place' visited us last week and wrote a fantastic blog post on the project: https://asenseofplaceblog.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/lister-steps-walking-into-the-future-part-one/ https://asenseofplaceblog.wordpress.com/2015/01/15/lister-steps-walking-into-the-future-part-two/ As a result of Ronnie's blog the Liverpool Echo picked up the story and spoke to our Heritage Development Officer Kerry for an update.
