Look shocking, no car park, replaced by hotels and apartrments, looks like everthing is being thought of apart the actual users of the Marine Lake.

The Sail Option 1
The redevelopment of the sailing school is maximised by utilising the existing Council-owned car park adjacent to Dee Lane.
The car park location is the perfect site for a new 80-150 bed hotel building with an integral quality restaurant and bar facility making use of the extensive views over the Dee Estuary.
In order to offset the loss of car parking, a deck of parking could be added to the Safeway Car Park and could be supplemented by parking at strategic locations along South Parade.
A replacement sailing school facility is proposed on the existing site in an iconic new building. It is proposed to include:
[ul]
[li]West Wirral Coast and Countryside Interpretation Centre, specifically focusing on the offer of Hilbre Island and making wider connections to the Mersey Waterfront Regional Park and Wirral Waterside Way;
[li]watersports centre to include all existing facilities;
[li]beach and Marine Lake changing facilities;
[li]marine retail centre;
[li]toilets.

The existing Marine Lake slipway and car parking area would be developed to take account of its stunning location and views. Possible end uses could be high quality apartments or a hotel.
Any loss of car parking would be balanced by the retention of the Council-owned car park adjacent to Dee Lane and could be supplemented by parking at strategic locations along South Parade.
