Spanning the area between the Royal Albert Dock and Mann Island, the transformation project will aim to improve the public realm and visitor experience at Canning Dock, revitalising the waterfront site.
NML wants to create “a cohesive visitor experience that links storytelling, heritage, community, connectivity, and commercial income”, acting as a catalyst for social and environmental improvements in the area, it said.

Not sure what Akkad is talking about. The slavery museum has been in the city for 15 years. Its relocation has been on the cards for a long time. Long before the whole George Floyd business.

The more I read this article the more confused I get. When did Dr. Martin Luther King Junior live or work in Liverpool? Did Royal Albert build that dock (I mean pay for it, not build it) or did somebody important decide to name it after him, to please him? And who is Royal Albert anyway? Was he a Lancashire lad? Unusual choice of PLACE names, don’t you think?
