EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Liverpool in the 1960s. The image captures a row of buildings standing proudly in front of Lime Street railway station, but their fate has already been sealed as demolition work has begun. This marks an important moment in the Ravenseft redevelopment project, specifically targeting the St Johns Market precinct. The photograph showcases the significant changes that were taking place during this era, with construction and demolition becoming common sights across cities. In particular, attention is drawn to the tall building on the right side of the frame, which will soon make way for a modern fifteen-storey office block alongside existing shops. Spencer's skillful composition allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty of these now-vanished structures and also serves as a reminder of progress and development within urban landscapes. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time from January 9th, 1967, we can't help but reflect on how much our surroundings have transformed over half a century. This evocative print from Memory Lane Prints not only captures an iconic moment in Liverpool's history but also invites us to ponder on themes such as construction, demolition, redevelopment - all emblematic elements that shape our ever-evolving cities throughout time.
