One of our partner organisations, Placed, invited us to get involved with their pop-up event ‘Ed’s Place’ this September. Over four weeks, Placed will be based in the old George Henry Lee building to provide a creative space for people, decision makers and developers to come together and share ideas about how our city centre can be a better place for everyone. There will be a programme of workshops, events and exhibitions focused on thinking about how Liverpool city centre could be reimagined and revived, including future uses for empty shops and greener outdoor spaces.
Last night we went along to a workshop with Placed & the University of Liverpool to get the ball rolling on some of these ideas. We were joined by others who have worked on regeneration and community projects across the city, such as Welsh Streets and Homebaked, to start coming up with some ideas for a new vision for our city centre. During the discussion, Atul Bansal illustrated these suggestions to create a visual map from Bold Street down to Derby Square, which will be on display in Ed’s Place once it opens to get people talking and thinking about possibilities for the future. It was a great evening and we were really pleased to be part of the conversation about how regeneration can have a positive impact for people living and working in the local area.
Ed’s Place will be open from Thursday 28th August until Sunday 23rd September and you can find out more on the Placed website. We’ll be helping out at the George Henry Lee building for a few days and possibly running our own workshop so watch this space for more news and make sure you come down to have your say on the future of our city.
