Writing Task 1

TASK 1 (Maps): Liverton docks

Sample Answer

The provided maps detail the transformations taking place in Liverton docks during the recorded period between 1980 and today.

Overall, the docks have undergone considerable changes, generally transforming from a primarily industrial area with commercial boating and storage facilities to an integrated waterfront complex accommodating educational, recreational, and socio-cultural functions. Other notable features are the added pedestrian, flood-defence, and parking facilities to cater to a presumably wider range of visitors and locals.

In the northernmost region, the existing warehouse situated in the northwestern corner has been revamped, being turned into an education centre, to the east of which there is now a newly constructed sailing club, located on the former site of the tower crane. Likewise, the former warehouse in the northeastern part has been replaced with a new children’s playground, while another tower crane at the northeastern corner was dismantled, leaving behind an empty area.

Looking at the central region, a marine museum has been constructed, replacing all commercial ships that used to occupy the central river. To the east of it, a bridge was added, along with a flood-protection feature (a flood barrier) to prevent water from the river from flooding the western museum.
Turning to the southern part, a newly constructed hotel has replaced the southwestern crane, while the warehouse was demolished, giving way to newly developed apartment blocks. A river walk has been added to the north of the hotel and apartments to cater to foot traffic. In the eastern part, a parking facility has been provided, from which people can still navigate eastward towards the coast.
