Waterloo Tunnel

King Edward Tower was a proposed skyscraper to be constructed on junction of Great Howard Street and Leeds Street in Liverpool, England. The tower was first proposed in 2007, received funding in 2008 and was altered pending approval in 2010. The estimated cost of the development was £130 million. If built, the tower would have become the tallest structure of any kind in Liverpool, taking the title from West Tower. Originally the development was known as the King Edward Towers because two buildings were proposed to be built. Each would have been roughly 130m tall and have between 40 and 50 floors. However, this idea was soon changed to a single, taller tower The building was intended to be mixed use with roughly 412 apartments, plus large amounts of office (25,000 square feet (2,300 m2)) and retail (7,500 square feet (700 m2)) space alongside basement level parking. There were also plans for a restaurant which will take up the entire 14th floor, with a rooftop bar likelyIn early 2010 a new modified design of the tower was presented to the public. Subject to planning, construction for this design was planned to have begun in 2011 and ended in 2014.New designs produced by Maurice Shapero emerged in early 2012 which replaced those of Rhodes Leach Walker. A planning application was expected to be submitted in Spring 2012. In 2015, it was reported the scheme had been abandoned and the site due to be sold.

Superlambanana is a bright yellow sculpture in Liverpool, England. Weighing almost 8 tonnes (7.9 long tons) and standing at 5.2 metres (17 feet) tall, it is intended to be a cross between a banana and a lamb and was designed by New York City-based Japanese artist Taro Chiezo. It currently stands in Tithebarn Street, outside the LJMU Avril Robarts Library/Learning Resource Centre, having previously been located on Wapping near the Albert Dock.Chiezo himself only created a four-inch model, while the full-size replica was made by local artists Andy Small, Julian Taylor, Tommy Reason, and Ray Stokes. Developed for the 1998 ArtTransPennine Exhibition, the sculpture is both a comment on the dangers of genetic engineering and is heavily influenced by the history of Liverpool: historically, both sheep and bananas were common cargos in the city's docks. In 2008, as part of Liverpool's year-long position as the European Capital of Culture, 125 individual miniature replicas were created. Sponsored by local community organisations and businesses in the city, the mini Superlambananas were located throughout the Liverpool and Merseyside region. One sculpture, The Highest SuperLambBanana, was located on top of Moel Famau, North Wales, recognising the very close links the city has with that region.
