  • Exhibition Road Cultural Group (2123).Pdf
    To: Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London New London Plan GLA City Hall London Plan Team Post Point 18 London SE1 2AA We welcome the opportunity to comment on the New London Plan and would be grateful if you could confirm receipt of this reponse. About us: The World’s First Planned Cultural Quarter Shared history and mission The Exhibition Road Cultural Group is a partnership of 18 leading cultural and educational organisations in and around Exhibition Road, South Kensington. Together these organisations comprise the world’s first planned cultural quarter, half of which falls within the Knightsbridge Neighbourhood Area. Created from the legacy of the Great Exhibition of 1851, and affectionately known as “Albertopolis”, this cultural quarter was established by the Royal Commission for the Great Exhibition of 1851 for the purpose of “increasing the means of industrial education and extending the influence of science and art upon productive industry”. Across its estate of 87 acres in South Kensington, the Royal Commission established three of the world’s most popular museums: The Natural History Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum, Science Museum and three colleges dedicated to arts, science and design: Imperial College London, the Royal College of Music and Royal College of Art and the most famous concert venue in the world, the Grade l listed Royal Albert Hall which was created originally as the Central Hall of Arts and Sciences. Over past century and a half, these institutions have been joined by other organisations that share the mission of promoting innovation and learning through the arts and science, including the Goethe Institut, Royal Geographical Society, Institute Français and the Ismaili Centre.

  • Monitoring the Implementation of a Shared Space Scheme in Exhibition Road
    Monitoring the Implementation of a Shared Space Scheme in Exhibition Road Dr. Ioannis Kaparis from CTS, Imperial College London Wednesday, 24 February 2010 - 16:00 Location: Room 609, Skempton (Civil Eng.) Bldg, Imperial College London Abstract Traditionally street design has been driven by the concept of segregation of pedestrians and vehicular traffic, relying upon the design and implementation of structures including pedestrian subways, bridges, guardrails and walls. In recent years, however, there has been a perceptible shift in architecture, urban planning and street design practice around the world towards desegregation and shared space, where vehicles and pedestrians are encouraged to share a single surface with reduced clutter, street furniture, signage, delineation or kerbs. In the UK, shared space schemes have been successfully introduced in, among other places, Newcastle and Brighton, while a £25m scheme is being implemented in London’s Exhibition Road, replacing the current dual carriageway layout with a paved granite single surface. As part of a monitoring programme of the Exhibition Road scheme, research is being undertaken in the Centre for Transport Studies, Imperial College London, on pedestrian perceptions and behaviour in segregated and shared space environments as well as vehicle-pedestrian conflicts analysis methods appropriate for use in shared spaces. In this talk, an overview of the research activities will be given, including a presentation of the results obtained so far. Biography Dr. Ioannis Kaparias is a Research Associate at the Centre for Transport Studies, Imperial College London. He has a background in Civil Engineering and a PhD in Transport from Imperial, that focused on the development and testing of a new route finding algorithm for reliable dynamic in-vehicle navigation.

In 1947 and 1948, The New York Sun ran a Pulitzer Prize-winning exposé of waterfront corruption and violence. Yet the problem persisted, culminating in two gangland executions near the entrance to Pier 3. Budd Schulberg, the journalist, screenwriter and novelist, was inspired by The New York Sun articles to write a long feature on the subject for The Saturday Evening Post. It provided the basis for his script of the Oscar-winning movie, On the Waterfront (1954), which was filmed on location in Hoboken.) p.5 ‘During its… fashion-world celebrity’. (Anna Wolkoff’s shop opened in June 1935 and closed in January 1939. Even after its closure, she retained her status as a minor celebrity. Confirmation of this is provided by the decision of Clark’s shoes to pay her to endorse a limited edition of women’s shoes, bearing a printed version of her autograph. These were being promoted as late as June 1939.) p.8 ‘Roughly the size… a balcony’. (The Nordic League’s meeting was held in the Great Hall at Caxton Hall.) p.8 ‘Tonight she had… and fascism.’ (Enid Riddell’s escort was Bob Ramsay, son of Captain Archibald Henry Maule Ramsay, one of the key figures within the Nordic League.) p.9 ‘Her clipped… elocution lessons.’ (Each week Miss Reade, the elocution mistress at St James’s School, would make all the girls press their hands against their stomachs while they recited the tongue-twisting lines, ‘Gold, gold, hard and cold, hugged right down to the churchyard’s mould, scorned by the young and loved by the old.’ p.9 ‘Or she could… Sylphides.’ (The entertainments were billed as follows: ‘Hashem Khan: Russian and Gipsy Songs; Russian Ballet, Irina Baronova and Anton Dolin in ‘Pas de deux’ from Ballet ‘Les Sylphides’.
