 |  | the old Speke easy
< on 4/15/2013 7:19 PM >
|  | | | I've been working in Liverpool the last couple of nights and after seeing a few old reports from here I decided to have a nosey
The Hotel used to be the Speke Airport and as they now occupy the main terminal the apron is being used to store all the old planes
| he original terminal building dating from the late 1930s, famously seen on early television footage with its terraces packed with Beatles fans, was left derelict for over a decade after being replaced in 1986. The building was renovated and adapted to become a hotel, opened for business in 2001, preserving its Grade II listed Art Deco style. The hotel was previously part of the Marriott chain of hotels, but is currently the Crowne Plaza Liverpool John Lennon Airport Hotel after a renovation in August 2008. The former apron of the terminal is also listed and retained in its original condition, although it is no longer connected to the airport or subject to airside access control. It is the home of several aircraft, including BAe Jetstream 41 prototype G-JMAC and Bristol Britannia G-ANCF, preserved by the Jetstream Club. The two art deco style hangars that flank the terminal and apron have also been converted for new uses. One is now a David Lloyd leisure centre, whilst the other has been adapted as the headquarters of the Shop Direct Group, and is now known as Skyways House. |

Sadly they were locked and alarmed
|
What were they afraid of?
Seriously: I like the long exposures, especially #s 6, 8, & 9.
