 | | Bluecoat Arts Centre, the oldest building in Liverpool city centre, will be undergoing major renovation work leading up to the 800th birthday of the city in 2007, and the European Capital of Culture programme of events taking place there a year later. |
 | | This Grade One listed building, which was originally a school, before being converted into an arts centre, is in a poor state of maintenance, due to the lack of finance required to carry out repairs to the leaking roof, rotting windows, decaying brickwork, etc. |
 | | The Bluecoat will be closed from January 2005, which will lead to the current tenants of the building having to locate elsewhere, with Biggs hoping that, if all goes to plan, it will re-open its doors again in the summer of 2006. |
