Legacie Developments says Liverpool must try to “build its way through the coronavirus crisis” amidst fears of economic decline as a result of the virus spreading.

The leading development company, which is currently working on the £90 million Parliament Square scheme on the edge of Baltic Triangle, believes the city’s construction industry must pull together during the crisis and carry on with work as much as possible.

The firm’s founder and managing director, John Morley, says work on all of Legacie’s projects is currently continuing and measures have been put in place to support any staff affected by the outbreak of the disease.

John says: “Like other major developers, Legacie is taking all precautions to continue working safely and effectively during these challenging times and we are offering full support to our staff and stakeholders.

“Though we are aware that this crisis is affecting many businesses, our work will continue as best we can because we believe that building our way through will help keep Liverpool’s economy as strong as it can be.

“Work on Parliament Square and our other developments is continuing. It is important we keep going as we want to help build the city’s future.”

Parliament Square will feature 500 apartments across four blocks and a public plaza comprising shops, restaurants and a gym. The first phase of the development will be complete by summer 2021.

Legacie has delivered a number of residential development schemes in the city, including Renshaw Street’s Ropemaker Place and Water Street’s Reliance House.
