Crystal Palace Park - have your say!

Tent in Crystal Palace Park

Do try and get to this Tent in Crystal Palace Park between today & 26th September. It is open 10am to 6pm and is a vital opportunity to see some future options for the redevelopment of both the park and the National Sports Centre. Not only that - but it is an opportunity to comment and make further suggestions.

This is organised by Ken Livingstone's London Development Agency (LDA).

The LDA is to take on responsibility for the sports centre in 2006 and, possibly, for the park as a whole by 2009. The sports centre is the home of many London and national sports bodies, but within five to eight years will need major works to maintain standards. The park — which was once home to the FA Cup Final and the world-famous Crystal Palace and still boasts a 150-year-old dinosaur park also needs considerable work to fulfil its potential.

This consultation is an opportunity to shape the work ahead to create first class sports facilities and make the once-iconic park truly great again. This will help drive the regeneration of surrounding areas, boosting local businesses, bringing in jobs and creating an excellent learning resource for local schools.

If you can't get to the Tent in the Park - then you can see some of the work and comment at the LDA site <here>

A New Future

The old Palace has gone, the NSC is a listed building. Should it stay or be replaced?
