The given diagram illustrates how the Liverton docks have changed between 1980 and now.
Overall, it is clear that the docks have undergone several dramatic transformations, the most important of which is the replacement of warehouses, cranes, and ships with multifunctional environments catering for recreational, residential, and educational purposes.
Looking at the graph in more detail, in the northern part of the area, there were two warehouses in 1980, but over time, they were replaced by an education centre in the northwest and a kid’s playing area in the northeast. A crane located between these warehouses has been cleared, making way for a sailing club that will serve leisure purposes. Additionally, a row of ships used to be docked in the central river, stretching from west to east. In their place, a ship museum has been introduced on the northern riverbank. To improve connectivity, a new bridge has been constructed in the western part of the site, accompanied by a flood barrier built just to the east of it.
Turing for the southern site, in 1980, the middle part was occupied by a warehouse and a crane in the southwest. While the crane has been removed to make way for a hotel, the former warehouse has been converted into an apartment. Following this, a parking area in the southeast is constructed beside the new apartments, and a river walk, which is in front of these houses, provides public access and enhances the area’s livability.
