Kent Design Initiative Seminar: Creating a Sustainable Park - a Tour around Mile End Park
Friday 16th November 2007, Start at Mile End Park Ecology Pavilion, Tower Hamlet, London
Kent Architecture Centre in conjunction with Kent Design has organised a series of seminars and tours to share skills and practical experiences on topical issues that affect design and planning in Kent. For November we have organised a seminar and tour of Mile End Park, to create a better understanding of how to make the most of our green spaces.
Mile End Park is an example of an excellent sustainable urban green space which has helped to regenerate its wider area. This is an opportunity to visit the award winning park, see the result first-hand and hear how the park was transformed from industrial land, devastated by World War II bombing, into a "people's park for the 21st Century". It is also a chance to hear from architect and master planner of the park George Gardner, Director of Gardner Stewart Architects - Winner of The Regeneration Architect of The Year 2006/07 - and Michael Rowan, Director, Mile End Park.
Attached is further information about the seminar and a booking form. Places are limited so please book in advance.
