Walk and ride through London with Foster + Partners
With outdoor activities being the flavour of the season, we have drawn up a few routes through the city that you could take on with friends and family. Suitable to bike or walk, each route features a selection of projects by the practice in the capital, introducing some of our ongoing work and reacquainting you with some old favourites.
On Sunday, 1 November we will be travelling across London from Wembley Stadium to South Quay Plaza, stopping off at several Foster + Partners projects such as Trafalgar Square, 30 St Mary Axe, Bloomberg, Millennium Bridge, and Canary Wharf Underground Station. You can follow our live journey on Instagram.
