Everton have begun negotiations to buy Nelson Dock, which is located next to Bramley-Moore Dock.
Everton's interim chief executive, Colin Chong, told delegates at MIPIM property conference in the south of France about TFG's plans to expand ownership of the adjacent dock that is located immediately to the south of Bramley-Moore Dock – an area he said he has always had 'envious eyes' on.
He said Everton's new owners The Friedkin Group have “tasked him with looking for a sports-led redevelopment that could be accommodated on Nelson Dock and maybe even further if we can get the right partners to invest.”
Negotiations for the club to acquire Nelson Dock from current owners, Peel Holdings, are now underway.

Stephen (@1),
Never rated Nelson tbh, we need strengthening in other areas in my opinion.

Some fascinating quotes from Colin Chong speaking at the annual property industry conference MIPIM, in Cannes, this week.
“Our new ownership has tasked me with looking for a sports-led redevelopment that could be accommodated on Nelson Dock, and maybe even further if we can get the right partners to invest… we'll hopefully have some information back in the next month or two”
Whilst it has been previously reported that Goodison could be retained to host the Ladies team, Chong has confirmed that this looks to be ‘most likely', with a ‘deconstruction' favoured over demolition.

We should buy the river Mersey and claim exclusive rights over it. That would really piss our neighbours off.
This (Nelson Dock) buy is a brilliant idea and just emphasises the fact that, we own this city!!

We should have been buying or taking options to buy on a lot of land surrounding BMD at day one.
Controlling what goes on around the stadium and having a significant financial stake in it.

Wow! A picture of BMD back before the stadium was built.
