Stop the redevelopment of Parr Street Studios

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Stop the planned demolition of Parr Street Studios and associated venues in Liverpool for development of high end apartments. The studio is a part of the cities rich musical heritage and must be stopped. Iconic albums have been recorded at the studio and it should be preserved.
We want the government to block planning permission on this site and preserve a piece of Liverpool music history. You wouldn't get rid of the Cavern and Parr street is equally as important to the cities musical heritage.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
