A Symbol of the City's Maritime History
Formerly the headquarters of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board or simply the 'Dock Offices' for 87 years, the Port of Liverpool building is one of the country's many historic structures. Being one of the 'Three Graces' (the other two being The Royal Liver Building & The Cunard Building), it is a world-renowned symbol of the city's maritime history in one of Britain's biggest ports.
Just before its hundredth birthday in 2009, a £10m restoration project was started on The Port of Liverpool Building. This lasted three years, and the idea was to bring back to life all the unique features and give it back its original glory.

To this day, tourists flock to Liverpool's waterfront to witness the Building's elegant Baroque design. Visitors can also opt to go inside to see the splendour of the intricate stained glass windows, marble walls, and learn more about the city's rich history.
Upgrading to efficient LED Floodlights
To replace the old metal halide floodlights lighting the balcony walls of the building, JB Electrical Ltd. from Manchester supplied and installed 50W V-TAC LED Floodlights from its Slimline Series for this project.
