Liverpool Tobacco Warehouse

[meliorama]

After being denied access at the birkdale school for the deaf by the phoniest looking 'security guard' ever we resorted to plan b.... and found ourselves at Liverpool's old tobacco warehouse. Though the site itself is completely bare the atmosphere was epic to say the least, it was really weird being in this old empty warehouse with the hussle and bussle of the sunday market beneath.
Anyways, on with the pics!

External shot of the main warehouse, it's a bit big isn't it lol

Plants had started to grow in the rubble on the top floor

The mersey beneath

Well apparently there's talk of removing some of the floors in the centre of the building to create speace for apartments and shops and the ground floor is currently used every Sunday for Liverpool's heritage market. It's nice to see it being put you use instead of left to rot.

Woooah, that's massive! Surely not long before it's converted into trendy new flats
