60 Victoria Street
Liverpool, England L1 6JS

The Central Post Office Building in Liverpool, designed by architect Henry Tanner and opened in 1899, was a significant structure that replaced the previous Head Post Office located at the Custom House. The building featured a grand facade and was equipped with various offices, including public sorting and delivery rooms, all constructed with fireproof materials and elegant fittings.

After suffering severe damage during World War II, the upper floors of the building were removed, and the site was eventually redeveloped into the Metquarter shopping center. The original design included notable decorative elements, such as figures representing the nations of the UK and various industries, showcasing the building's historical and architectural significance.
