Liverpool - Capital of European Culture 2008

Its called REGENERATION. You are just like Ringo trying to save his 2 up 2 down terraced house. Would YOU be prepared to live in one of these? These were designed/built at the end of the 19th Century. They are no longer practical. times change. Accept it

i do like the liverpudlians very much - my father is one of them! i had just separated from my partner and life was a hurdle and I did try very hard to buy a property there. This is a result of the frustration I felt because every house I viewed had a Compulsory Purchase Order, or they were owned by people who didn't live in them. If you wish, it would be lovely to see something from your point of view about Liverpool's housing situation.

You must also have a VERY low budget. Ive never viewed a CPO property and I have a small budget.

Sadly quite an accurate portrait of Liverpool. I did a bus tour of Liverpool last year & couldn't believe the amount of boarded up and wantonly vandalised properties in the City. Even if the shops were trading they seemed to be derelict until one stepped inside to find the trader behind a cage or plastic screen. Very depressing indeed.

U again. Take your ridiculous opinions back to wherever you are from and bury them

I cannot believe this person has spent so much time focusing on the bad parts of Liverpool! This is nothing more but a pathetic attempt to bring the city down. Liverpool has it's problems, as does any city but this is a deliberate attempt to degrade. It says more about the person spending hours driving around and editing the effects than it does the city. Truly Pathetic.

"they'll probably be replaced by new brick buildings"

if you don't know why those boarded up houses are being taken down then will you please not speculate and pollute youtube with this garbage. you alone are sending out a very poor message, luckily its too very few visitors. lets hope you crash or the police pull you over on your next hunt.

I feel so sad when I see Liverpool in such a bad state. I grew up there and had many many happy times and great memories. Theres a lot of hardship and poverty striken area in most cities these days and recent bad publicity don't do much to raise the hopes and expectations of our youth. I despair of many things these days but seeing a place I grew up in perish during my lifetime is the most heartbreaking.
