  • News Release City of London Corporation 23 March 2021
    News Release City of London Corporation 23 March 2021 EMBARGOED UNTIL 00:01 26 MARCH 2021 Park chiefs ask Londoners: social distance to stop COVID spread Visitors to London’s open spaces are being urged to follow social distancing rules this weekend to prevent a spike in COVID-19 infections. The capital’s park providers the City of London Corporation, Lee Valley Regional Park, London’s boroughs, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, and The Royal Parks made the call ahead of an easing of some lockdown measures. Under the Government’s Roadmap, from Monday 29 March, people will be able to meet outside in groups up to six, or with one other household – but those from different households will still need to socially distance from each other. Park bosses want Londoners to continue to play their part in keeping the COVID infection rate down as cases fall across the capital. The group is also encouraging visitors to act responsibly when visiting parks by respecting the Countryside Code, not leaving litter behind and using the bins provided or taking their rubbish home. Director of Open Spaces for the City of London Corporation, Colin Buttery, said: “Parks have played a crucial role in the physical and mental health of Londoners during the pandemic. But although some restrictions will soon be eased, we are still in a national lockdown - and it’s crucial that we all follow the rules to prevent a new spike. Londoners have already made huge sacrifices to cut infection rates, and there is light at the end of the tunnel.

There is much that we can be proud of having achieved over the past year. We have installed over 45 hectares of biodiverse habitat; we have reused materials from the Olympics onsite; we have built on the excellent sustainability credentials of the Olympic venues; published guidance for all events, big or small, on how to host a sustainable event; and have put in place the measures necessary to enable our forthcoming development to achieve zero carbon. I am very proud that the first phase of our development will contain Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park’s first onsite zero carbon homes. I am pleased to report that of the 74 sustainability commitments we made, 86% have either been achieved or are on track for achievement. We have also added seven new targets for 2014/15.

Our swimmers did not perform up to expectations in the 2012 Olympic Games in London and a rigorous review is in progress as this report goes to print. Though there was notable progress in a number of areas – for example the number of British Swimming finalists, we fell short of our medal target, with a number of medal prospects failing to deliver their season’s best performance when it mattered.

    N°1 EDITION KEIM 01|17 ERHALTEN UND GESTALTEN ZAHA HADID ARCHITECTS Fluid, kinetisch, parametrisch – die Architekturwelt der Zaha Hadid 1 „ICH GLAUBE NICHT, DASS ES BEI ARCHITEKTUR NUR UM SCHUTZ ODER SIMPLE BEHAUSUNG GEHT. ARCHITEKTUR SOLLTE BEGEISTERN, BERUHIGEN, ZUM NACHDENKEN ANREGEN.“ ZAHA HADID ZAHA HADID 1950–2016 Mitten in der Produktion dieser Ausgabe von Erhalten und Gestalten erreichte uns die Nachricht vom plötzlichen Tod der Protagonistin. So wurde aus einer Werkschau eine posthume Retro- spektive, ein Versuch, das Hadid‘sche Universum fluiden Bauens zu ergründen, was in der Zwei- dimensionalität des Gedruckten nur ansatzweise die Faszination widerspiegeln kann, die einen vor oder noch besser in den Gebäuden erfasst. Zaha Hadid polarisierte immer wieder neu, forderte ihre Bauherren heraus und brach schon mal Interviews ab, wenn die Sprache auf Projekte für zweifelhafte Regimes kam. Hadid galt als „Diva”, eigenwillig, zugleich kompromisslos und unerschrocken. Mit diesen Eigenschaften hatte sie es geschafft, im von Alpha-Männern dominierten internationalen Architekturbetrieb als Frau zu reüssieren und ernst genommen zu werden. Visionär war Hadid zweifellos, sie beherrschte die große Geste, schuf Solitäre, die aus einer fernen Galaxie zu kommen schienen. Ihr Tod am 31. März 2016 hinterlässt eine Lücke. 3 EDITION KEIM FLUID, KINETISCH, PARAMETRISCH Zaha Hadid war eine der schillerndsten, aber auch innovativsten Akteurinnen der internationalen Architekturszene. 1950 in Bagdad geboren, erkannte sie der Legende nach bereits mit elf Jahren ihre Berufung in der Architektur. Dennoch studierte sie zunächst bis 1971 Mathematik an der American University of Beirut, 1972 bis 1977 dann an der Architectural Association in London, unter anderem bei Rem Koolhaas. In seinem Büro OMA startete sie ihre berufliche Karriere, um 1980 ihr eigenes Büro in London zu gründen.
