Positioned on the Mann Island at Pier Head, which lies at the heart of the World Heritage Site on Liverpool's famous waterfront and next to The Three Graces, this £65m museum will provide 10,000m,2 of exhibition space.
The museum will be a showcase for social history and popular culture, looking at the world through the eyes of Liverpool's people. Architecturally, the museum's design features inclined or elevated platforms that gradually form a sculptural iconic structure. All surfaces will slope down to the public promenade that runs along the Docks.
