Crystal Palace National Sports Centre
Crystal Palace National Sports Centre
We’re working as structural and civil engineers on the transformation of the Grade II* listed Crystal Palace National Sports Centre alongside Morgan Sindall Construction; FaulknerBrowns; Woo Architects; and Max Fordham.
Opened in 1964, the centre comprises an athletics stadium, indoor arena, swimming and diving pools, together with a large gym and a range of internal and external sports facilities. It was built to designs by the London County Council’s architects department, led by Sir Leslie Martin, and has made a significant contribution to the development of British athletics as well as serving as the site of the first Women’s FA Cup final and Grand Prix motor-racing.
This once-in-a-generation redevelopment will significantly improve sporting facilities for the local community.
