This week NML announced that the new Museum of Liverpool will open in July 2011 and we were privileged to be shown around to have a look as displays are being installed. It’s a magnificent, massive space, a lot of it still empty but each area is gradually filling up. Very exciting, I can’t wait till it opens and the crowds start pouring in.

  1. i’m liking the images of the new Lpl Museum. the staircase in particular. i personally absolutely love this building – the view across the mersey from birkenhead woodside of it only adds to its new pole position as best looking dynamic new Liverpool landmark. gorgeous building!
