Exclusive First-Look At Apartments Planned For Historic Produce Exchange
These images show the new-look Produce Exchange – which is to be converted into luxury apartments in an £8m overhaul.
More than 100 years old, the glorious building is set to be converted into housing – with features from an old war memorial to perfectly preserved stained glass windows throughout its six floors.
<br> Based on Victoria, the Grade II listed building´s top five floors are set to undergo a transformation into luxury accommodation – with a design that mixes both the old and the new.
The £8m transformation is a joint project from international Foster Marlon and investors from Sotheby´s Hong Kong.
54 residential apartments are being built across the top five floors of the historic building and are set to be completed before July 2017.
Foster Marlon´s director, Uzair Zaidi said he was ´honoured´ to be involved in the development.
He said: “Huge demand for this project from international investors has made us seek for more development opportunities in the city of Liverpool.
“We feel honoured in developing this beautiful historic building. The Produce exchange has given us the opportunity to showcase the rich history and bright future of Liverpool.”
On the ground floor, new city-centre favourite Turtle Bay has already opened up, and a new Grillstock is also set to open its doors in the coming months.
Construction on the project is due to begin this week.
