00:00Liverpool councillors have approved plans for a 28-storey tower on the edge of the city centre.
00:07The Pathfinder building will create 250 one- and two-bedroom apartments on the former King Edward
00:13industrial estate off Waterloo Road. The scheme forms the first phase of a wider ÂŁ1 billion
00:19regeneration site within Liverpool waters. Planning officers acknowledge policy conflicts
00:25including no affordable housing provision but said public benefits outweighed harms.
00:31Some councillors criticise design concerns. Construction of the Pathfinder building is
00:36expected to begin later this year, subject to signing of a planning legal agreement and site preparation works.
