- The enormous front window of the new museum overlooks the Three Graces.
- Minerva sits atop the Liver Building's tower, with a Liver Bird in the distance. The statue is of King Edward VII. The clock was extra-large so it could be seen by mariners heading to sea.
- A view down the water front shows the new museum and old Graces.
- A reflection of the Liver Building gives a clue as to why the Liverpool Museum is how it is.
- As we get closer, the huge amount of glass becomes readily apparent.
- The Liver Building has seen countless special events; here, gymnast Beth Tweddle celebrates the Olympic Torch.
- Queen Elizabeth II (QE2) passes in 2008 on her final voyage.
