The Mersey Observatory

At the mouth of the world famous River Mersey, the Mersey Observatory will offer unrivalled 360 degree panoramic views of Liverpool Bay, the city's skyline, the Mersey Waterfront, the Port of Liverpool and the Welsh hills. It will stand proudly alongside Crosby Marine Park and the iron men of Antony Gormley's Another Place.
It will provide a unique vantage point from which to observe the dynamic tides, powerful weather systems, stunning wildlife spectacle and the global port with its international shipping traffic. The Mersey Observatory will bring these internationally important features of the magnificent River Mersey alive for visitors.
Mersey Basin Campaign is developing the £11.65 million Mersey Observatory proposals, which will see the existing radar tower demolished and replaced with a unique structure of international standing.
The outstanding winning design, by Duggan Morris Architects, was selected by an independent Jury Panel on 6th March 2008.
