## Resource

Fifty years ago, Vincent O’Neill defied his friends and bought a crumbling 1830s mansion on Percy Street—now a Grade II listed gem—that he painstakingly restored over two decades, uncovering hidden treasures like ornate moldings and vintage bell pulls. Once mocked for investing in the city center, he watched as the neighborhood transformed from gritty urban decay into a serene conservation area with stunning architecture and cathedral views. He weathered the turbulent Toxteth uprisings of 1981, calling them “terrible beauty,” and now, at 80, still calls it home—raising his daughters there and welcoming their families to enjoy its timeless charm.
