The Pier Head area of the Liverpool Waterfront is a World Heritage Site and is dominated by The Three Graces. These are, The Royal Liver Building, The Cunard Building and The Port of Liverpool Building, which is shown here.
The large ,white, stone tower behind The Port of Liverpool Building is a ventilation shaft for The Queensway Mersey Tunnel, usually called either The Old Tunnel or The Birkenhead Tunnel.Interestingly, this wonderful, stone-built,Art Deco designed building and ventilation shaft (opened 1934) performs the same function as the far more utilitarian structure shown Here (opened in 1971).

Cornelius was here! (lol) Click HERE to see his work!
They are such amazing buildings, something so very very grand about them. I should imagine going to work in them is a pleasure. Lovely shot.

I didn't know about the three Graces Steve. When I read your title I thought it maybe had something to do with 'Are You Being Served'. I like this building, and you did well with it considering the poor light and conditions.

Good capture Mark. Great clarity throughout.
