Buyer confirmed for King Edward Triangle

KEIE Limited (a group company of T.J. Morris Limited, who trade as Home Bargains) is confirmed as the buyer of The King Edward Triangle neighbourhood within Liverpool Waters from waterside regeneration specialists Peel Waters.

T.J. Morris has partnered with Hugh Frost, the founder of Beetham Organization Ltd, to bring the prime city development site forward. Frost is best known for redefining the skylines of Manchester, Liverpool and Birmingham and demonstrating that high-quality residential and mixed-use towers could thrive in key provincial cities.  He said:

“We can expect a stunning mixed use development worthy of our great city.  It’s a privilege and pleasure to be involved again on home soil, in what is going to be a transformational project for Liverpool city centre.  Our development will bring jobs and prosperity through a variety of uses.

“The site has outline planning consent as a neighbourhood of the Liverpool Waters masterplan, but our proposals will aim to be more ambitious, demonstrating what a well-planned tall building zone can really deliver.”

Addressing concerns about the needs of existing tenants of the industrial estate, Mr Frost said:

“We are aware of the concerns that existing tenants have and there is genuine empathy for the traders on the estate. Every effort will be made to help them with relocation at the appropriate time.”
