Laing O’Rourke will today begin the construction of Everton’s new 52,000 seat football stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock in Liverpool.
The Premier League club hopes to host games at the site as early as 2024.
The plans were given the go-ahead by Liverpool City councillors at a February meeting, before being approved by central government.
The stadium has been designed by MEIS architects and engineers BuroHappold.
Among other changes, the stadium s height has been reduced so that it is defined as a mid-rise building, in an attempt to address heritage concerns.
Despite the heritage concerns, the club says Bramley-Moore Dock’s location within Liverpool’s Unesco World Heritage Site and the Stanley Dock Conservation Area has been fundamental to how the project has been designed and planned. It says the stadium has been designed to respect and preserve the area s heritage, while bringing a long-standing semi-derelict dockland site back into use.
