Everton FC's plans for a new 52,000-seater stadium have been unanimously approved by city councillors.
The club said the Bramley-Moore Dock site will be a "world-class addition" to the city's waterfront and hopes to host games there in 2024.
The £500m scheme which it's claimed will create 15,000 jobs will now go to the government for the final say.
Everton's £82m plans to redevelop Goodison Park as a legacy project were also approved.
Historic England had objected to the new stadium on Bramley-Moore Dock saying it could harm the city's heritage but this was dismissed by the city's planning committee.
