The President of the The Victorian Society and the LISSCA Campaign to Save Liverpool Street Station will be hosting a free public meeting at Bishopsgate Institute on Tuesday 21st November at 6pm.

Come to the public meeting and hear from experts how:

 

  • Liverpool Street Station would be partially demolished with a huge tower cantilevered through and over the Grade II* listed hotel
  • Commuters would face 10 years of disruption
  • The train sheds and concourse would be in constant gloom under the tower
  • Improvements the scheme claims to pay for are already happening
  • The plans would set a terrible precedent meaning no listed building is safe from having a tower built on top
  • The so called ‘eco tower’ would require huge amounts of carbon emissions for its construction
  • What is the justification for offices in this area?
  • You can help us stop all this!

Seats for the event are First Come, First Served on the night.

VENUE: Bishopsgate Institute, 230 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 4QH Opposite Liverpool Street Station.
