Seen on Building Design:
Duggan Morris Architects is to design the new Mersey Observatory in Crosby after seeing off competition from Studio 8, Phos Architects, Farrell & Clark, and Ellis Williams Architects.
The RIBA competition sought a design to replace the disused radar tower, which stands between Liverpool Docks and Crosby Beach, that would attract up to 250,000 visitors a year.
The project, part of the ongoing regeneration of the area, will offer views of both Liverpool’s skyline and Antony Gormley’s famous installation, Another Place, which consists of 100 iron figures on Crosby Beach.
