PICKETTS LOCK, LONDON
ATHLETICS STADIUM

The Practice participated in the competition for the ill fated Lee Valley National Athletics Stadium at Picketts Lock, North of London.

The proposal was for a World Class Athletics Arena for the 2006 World Championships. Located within the 'London Lung' the concept involved forming the stadium within a parkland setting, moulding the contours of the land to envelope the arena and complement the existing landscape.
