Forest Hill Pools design goes on display

Post by admin »

LEWISHAM PRESS RELEASE

An exhibition of the latest design for the new Forest Hill Pools will be on display until Saturday 27 March.

Lewisham Council hopes as many people as possible will visit the exhibition and give their comments.

On the last day of the exhibition there will be an opportunity to meet the architects and ask more detailed questions.

The Mayor of Lewisham, Sir Steve Bullock, said: “A lot of people have put much time and energy into making sure the new pools are the best they can be. I am determined that as many people as possible are given a further opportunity to see the plans so the architects can go away and incorporate as many views as possible in the final design.”

The current plans can be seen at the following locations and times:


* Wednesday 17 March: Forest Hill Station, 4.30pm – 6.30pm
* Thursday 18 March: Forest Hill Library, 9am – 8pm
* Friday 19 March: Sainsbury’s, London Road, 5pm – 7pm



* Wednesday 24 March: Forest Hill Station, 4.30–6.30pm
* Thursday 25 March: Forest Hill Library, 9am – 8pm
* Friday 26 March: Sainsbury’s, London Road, 5pm – 7pm



* Saturday 27 March: Forest Hill Station, 10am – 3pm (meet the architects)


It is also possible to see the current design online at:

i've just been down to FH library to see the display. Although there is no 3D model, I have to say i'm impressed with both plans.

Here are the pools as they are today

Yep, they look excellent, although I prefer the rounded roof at the front as shown on the labour party leaflet.

At last a design to make the area proud, a pool to please everyone and a much better result after a long campaign. Congratulations to all involved.

Lets hope the finish and materials used are of good quality and that it's properly maintained.
