Location
Sitting beneath the majesty of Liverpool’s magnificent Anglican Cathedral, New Chinatown will create another great architectural landmark in a city already boasting World Heritage status.
New Chinatown is at the beating heart of Liverpool. Close to the city’s historic Chinese quarter, the development sits at the intersection of many of Liverpool’s most vibrant districts and close to its many outstanding landmarks and attractions. As the city centre expands south, plans are afoot to create a new metro station to connect New Chinatown and The Baltic to the city’s established urban rail network.
Liverpool is one of the UK’s fastest growing city economies. Having experienced growth at a rate only exceeded by London, the city has become an increasingly popular tourist destination. The city has rebuilt its economy in recent decades with outstanding strengths in digital creativity, bio-sciences and advanced manufacturing.
