First Public Land Pilot Disposal to Bring New Homes to Liverpool

More than 100 new homes are to be built on former railway land in Aintree, Liverpool, after completion of the first public land pilot disposal. The HCA has recently taken on 35 sites from other government bodies as part of a nationwide effort to get public land with capacity for up to 100,000 homes out to market by March 2015. The site was identified within Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council’s 2011 Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment as a potential area for sustainable redevelopment. Since taking on the site, the HCA has worked with the council to secure the deal, which will bring a substantial amount of private sector investment to the area and will improve approximately 10 acres of public open space for the residents of Aintree.
