Sinergy progresses latest Liverpool apartment scheme
The developer has tabled proposals for a 117-flat scheme on nearby Great Richmond Street, having lodged plans for a 30-apartment project on the corner of Richmond Row and Fox Street earlier this year.
Altrincham-based Sinergy Group is working with architect Brock Carmichael on plans for a six-storey development on land currently occupied by warehouses.
The developer wants to knock down the brick-built industrial buildings to pave the way for a six-storey apartment block comprising a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom flats.
The scheme has been in the pipeline for several months and has gone through various design iterations. In September 2023, when the first pre-app meeting with Liverpool City Council took place, Sinergy presented a nine-storey 163-home development.
The developer has subsequently scaled the project back in line with officer comments.
To learn more about the project, search for reference number 24F/2898 on Liverpool City Council’s planning portal.
Zerum is advising Sinergy on planning matters.
Sinergy’s directors also owned a fire-damaged, half-built 138-apartment Liverpool block within nearby Fox Street Village. The firm is seeking consent from Liverpool City Council to restart the construction of the block. The authority’s planning committee will meet next week to determine an application for the recommencement of the scheme.
OMG here we go again, submitted plans for 9 storeys but too high, now cut to 6, but why, how can developers make money in Liverpool.
This has been rumbling on for 14 months, who is guiding the planning department, why don`t these developers appeal to Angela Rayner, she wants homes built to reach their targets, this city council needs exposing as timewasters who are holding back the city.
Very few serious plans coming through on the council planning portal and anything that does is never right for these planners or the committee.

There’s a lot of potential around that L3 postcode so I am happy to see someone is actually doing something around there. That derelict frame on Fox street was an eye sore so I’m glad to see they have demolished it and submitted a fresh planning application. I get nobody likes ‘Developers’ but at least somebody is doing something about it… Liverpool planning need to stop putting barriers up and get these sites moving.

What is the slightest issue with 9 stories here? Impossible to not feel so down about Liverpool at the moment, feels like we will never get out of our own way

Pathetic from the planning department to chop this down to 6 stories. Please ask questions of them at the upcoming PNW event.
