The proposals for Boxpark Liverpool will include around 10 kitchen units, three internal bars with additional external bars
Boxpark, a retail, dining and leisure group, has announced its sixth site and first Boxpark-branded development in Liverpool, set to open in 2023.
Boxpark has agreed a 15-year lease with Terracotta Asset Management Limited for The Canning Hall site in the south of Liverpool city, which sits within the Baltic Triangle district, forming part of the Cains Brewery Village estate.
Built in the 1980’s, the warehouse building will be developed into a food and entertainment destination, featuring a large internal space with units set over the ground floor, a small internal mezzanine, and an external terrace.
The food, events and retail development will be an “exciting addition” to Liverpool’s existing food and beverage landscape, becoming a dining destination with approximately 10 units held by independent food operators.
Spanning 16,000 sq. ft and holding 400 internal covers plus 200 external covers, the proposals for Boxpark Liverpool will include around 10 kitchen units, three internal bars with additional external bars. In addition, there will be a 5,430 sq. ft external terrace to offer al fresco dining and intimate events.
BoxparkLiverpool will be the first outside of London with three sites in Shoreditch, Croydon and Wembley.
