The royal Hospital Liverpool Demolition update 18th August 2024

Another visit to the royal to check out the progress, they have moved to the other end of the building they were demolishing apparently i was told something to do with its design. Enjoy the close ups while dodging the seagulls.

That place has strong memories for me. I spent a lot of time in there in ward 7 when i had cancer. From my bed, which was next to the window, i watched them building the new royal.

One of the most hideous buildings ever designed in this country. I wonder where all the rubble goes in a project like this?

[@konemseries12]

Not much left of that building now, those lifts look relatively new being KONE MonoSpace Lifts, seen another clip of them working from approx 10 years ago and it looks like they were fitted in 2008. Main ward sets were older lifts refurbished multiple times I believe. Maybe the lift shaft is the strength point and needs to be demolished last to prevent any collapse.

@@konemseries12 I did get told the reason for them moving to the opposite end was because of design so you cud be right

Excellent work Paul. Do you know if the long reach machines will be used on the higher parts of the ward block?

[@veryhighguy]

Yes it will be used all over

[@Bassisace1]

Thanks Paul. That will be a bit more challenging I think, due to the scale of the building.
