The five Grade I listed buildings, covering 1.25 million s, make the Albert Dock complex the largest set of Grade 1 buildings in the UK. Part of
the Albert Dock redevelopment, this is Salthouse Dock. The unmistakable Port of Liverpool Building, Cunard and Royal Liver buildings provide the impressive
architectural backdrop. Just entering Salthouse Dock is the yellow ex-army DUKW (pronounced 'duck') amphibious vehicle which provides land and
water tours to the dockland visitor. Following a spectacular refurbishment by the Arrowcraft Group in partnership with Merseyside Development Corporation,
the Albert Dock was restored to its former glory and is now once again a centrepiece of the renowned Merseyside waterfront.
 The Albert Dock represents Britain's largest group of grade one listed buildings and contains one and a quarter million square feet of floor space.
