Liverpool City Council is at loggerheads with one of the country’s biggest rugby league clubs over plans for a half-a-billion-dollar lifestyle, entertainment and recreational precinct on the edge of their city.
The Canterbury League Club has put together a planning proposal for 10 buildings, which would house 1150 apartments, 44 serviced units, 150 hotel rooms, up to 1000sq m of commercial space and a registered club.
The club alone will cover 9300 square metres.
The proposal seeks to develop a generally vacant 29,720-sq-m site at 84 Memorial Avenue, Liverpool. About 660sq m of that is a corner lot at 82 Memorial Avenue. Online records show both lots were acquired by Canterbury in October 2020.

Canterbury’s plan is to break the site into three precincts—a club-hotel precinct, a western residential and an eastern residential precinct. Those areas would have building heights of 37m, 62m and 77m, including two-metre allowances for lift overruns and plant rooms on the roof of towers....
