Location of project : Filbert Car Park
Filbert Car Park
As a final decision of location I chose Filbert Car Park in Leicester for my project. Many people are moving to Leicester for jobs (news.leicester.gov.uk, 2023) , and this place has advantages for what I want to do.At first, I wanted to build at Sovereign House, but for pavilion I am going to add my project I decided to get close to river . So, I looked more and found Filbert Street Car Park nearby. Being close to the river, making it a nice place for families and a calm atmosphere.
I chose this place also because it lets people see the river from the pavilion. This is important because one of aims in my project is giving people peaceful place to live .
Filbert Car Park is a good choice in Leicester has reasonable distance to city centre by walk takes 23 minutes, by car 7 minutes and for to going bus station takes 2 minutes by walk .

ReplyDeleteThe site just to the right of the car park (on the map) is wasteland - you should use this as well as the car park, it will be important to incorporate some of the car park into your design for the local residents and for visitors to the site.
