The stadium was later used for athletics, rugby, boxing, QPR Figure 4.3: 1. 1908 - White City Olympic Stadium and greyhound racing until the mid-1980s.

  • How Has the Coalition's Pledge to Restore the Right to Non-Violent
    As sent 15/1/18 A Seven (or so) Year Hitch: How Has The Coalition’s Pledge To Restore The Right To Non-Violent Protest Fared? In the course of the 2010 election campaign, the Liberal Democrats committed themselves to “restore the right to protest by reforming the Public Order Act to safeguard non-violent protest even if it offends; and restrict the scope of injunctions issued by vested interests.”1 This led, after the formation of the Coalition government in May 2010, to a pledge to “restore rights to non-violent protest”.2 Nearly a decade on, it is time to assess how far that was brought into effect. This article takes a broad sweep across the past eight years, looking at peaceful protest and political participation. It concludes that, with some honourable exceptions, the trend has been a regressive one or at least not a liberalising one. That is probably unsurprising. While there have been some advances at doctrinal level, the practical reality on the streets for those wishing to express their dissent or bring about political/social change is one marked by increasing difficulty. The article is in two main parts. The first, shorter part plots some of the key events in the period. The second is organised around four themes, each illustrating a tension or an area of interplay between protesters and the state 3 : doctrinal developments; policing practice; non-state – that is private – involvement and regulation; and access to civic space.4 1 Liberal Democrat Manifesto 2010 p. 93 2 The Coalition: Our Programme for Government p.11 available here https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-coalition-documentation (access on 19 December 2017).

  • Chapter 3: Delivery Plan
    Chapter Three Delivery Plan 3. Delivery Plan 3.1 Introduction This chapter sets out our delivery plan to achieve our LIP objectives, as identified in Chapter 2. It is structured as follows: • Section 3.2 identifies potential funding sources for 2011/12 to 2013/14. • Section 3.3 summarises our delivery actions for this time period and beyond, and describes how the proposed interventions will deliver our LIP objectives. • Section 3.4 sets out our high level programme of investment for this time period (extending to 2015/16 with respect to our proposed major schemes), based on the delivery actions. This section also describes how our more detailed annual programme will be drawn up in the form of an Annual Spending Submission to Transport for London. • Finally, Section 3.5 outlines our approach to programme risk management. 3.2 Potential funding sources Table 3.1 identifies potential funding sources for implementation of our LIP, including our three-year LIP funding allocation from TfL, contributions from the council’s revenue support grant and funding from other sources including developers, local businesses, and specific grants from government (e.g. the Community Infrastructure Fund). These funding levels may vary in total and between individual years of the programme. Our key source of funding is our LIP allocation from TfL, which amounts to £8 million across three years for LIP-funded schemes. We have supplemented this with £15 million of the council’s own funding. This represents a significant investment in our transport networks given the current economic climate. Of this, £11 million has been allocated to maintenance.

  • Introduction: Driving Spaces
    Chapter One Introduction: Driving Spaces So, like earlier generations of English intellectuals who taught themselves Italian in order to read Dante in the original, I learned to drive in order to read Los Angeles in the original. the freeway system in its totality is now a single comprehensible place, a coherent state of mind, a complete way of life, the fourth ecology of the Angeleno. The freeway is where the Ange- lenos live a large part of their lives. the actual experience of driving on the freeways prints itself deeply on the conscious mind and unthinking refl exes. As you acquire the special skills involved, the Los Angeles freeways become a special way of being alive. (Banham 1971: 23, 213, 214) The integrated [rural] freeway, married to its landscape, is an elegant com- position in space, geared to high speed mobility. Its sculptural qualities can be enormous; it speaks of movement and the kinesthetic qualities of driving on it are vastly exciting. It is further, a form of action calligraphy where the laws of motion generate a geometry which is part engineering, part paint- ing, part sculpture, but mostly an exercise in choreography in the landscape. At their best, these great ribbons of concrete, swirling through the land, give us the excitement of an environmental dance, where man can be in motion in his landscape theater. (Halprin 1966: 37) . the Santa Monica/San Diego intersection is a work of art, both as a pattern on the map, as a monument against the sky, and as a kinetic experi- ence as one sweeps through it.

  • Sensing the Unmapped in Concrete Island
    Robertson: Grass in an Expanding Field 31 Grass in an Expanding Field: Sensing the Unmapped in Concrete Island Sue Robertson University of Brighton _____________________________________ Abstract: Ballard’s complex evocation of the spaces of Concrete Island (1974) belies the simplicity of the structures that surround them. Before the construction of the Westway in the late 1960s the huge motorway intersection was shown as a smooth plastic ribbon laid atop the grittiness of run down and densely occupied 19th century housing of North Kensington. The spaces between were not considered. But Concrete Island celebrates this disappearing domain by tracing out fragments of its history, drawing an archaeology, but also expanding the ways that architectural spaces may be understood by paying attention to their sensual qualities. This paper examines the ways that the spaces of Concrete Island can be understood in the context of Rosalind Krauss’s concept of the expanded field, and suggests that considering the novel as an example of the expanded field helps us to pay attention to ‘spaces between’. Situated at a very specific moment of change, in the arts and in technological advances, Ballard looks backwards and forwards in time, and questions the stability of time and place. By taking de Certeau’s understanding of the detailed movements of pedestrians in the city as analogous with writing, I seek to develop a way forward to the production of drawn responses that acknowledge this expanding field . My argument focuses on Ballard’s metaphorical use of tactile, material qualities, demonstrating how rapid changes in the environment may be felt through his representation of the grass that thrives in between the giant structures of the Westway and M4 motorways.

    planning report GLA/2885c/01 30 April 2018 White City Campus South Masterplan in the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham planning application no. 18/00267/OUT Strategic planning application stage 1 referral Town & Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended); Greater London Authority Acts 1999 and 2007; Town & Country Planning (Mayor of London) Order 2008. The proposal Redevelopment of the site to construct an employment-led mixed use development comprising up to 178,102 sq.m. of office and research and development floorspace, 13,539 sq.m. of flexible commercial, leisure and community use, a 9,290 sq.m. hotel and 373 residential units, with buildings ranging from 2 to 32 storeys, together with supporting highways infrastructure and public realm. The applicant The applicant is Imperial College London and the architect is Allies and Morrison Strategic issues summary Principle of development: The development of a new research campus, with supporting commercial, leisure, community, hotel and residential uses is strongly supported and would help to deliver the Mayor’s aspirations for ‘Med City’, the White City OAPF and housing targets. The applicant must provide further details to confirm their strategy for providing SME workspace. Affordable housing: 35% affordable housing (comprising intermediate units prioritised for Imperial College London employees and other key workers) is generally supported as a starting point; however, as the scheme is not eligible for the ‘Fast Track Route’, the applicant must submit a Financial Viability Appraisal and early and late stage review mechanisms should be secured. Should the applicant significantly increase the affordable housing offer, GLA officers may be minded to wave the late stage review.
