A development which has cost a council 拢144m is good value for money, a senior councillor has insisted, despite a half-empty main building and four undeveloped plots of land.

A Liverpool City Council's cabinet report said Paddington Village suffers from "a lack of investment".

It was a flagship project of ex-mayor Joe Anderson.

And is a key part of the city's "knowledge quarter" near the University of Liverpool and the Royal Hospital.

The three projects completed so far are the distinctive Spine office development, a hotel and multi-story car park.
