London 2012 Olympic White Water Venue, Broxbourne
December 2010
SPACE & PLACE acted as Project Architect for Morrison Construction – Design & Build Civil Engineering contractor – responsible for construction of the Olympic White Water Course for the London 2012 Games.
S&P took forward a concept design that was developed up to RIBA Stage D. The centre was completed in 2010 and was the first newly constructed Olympic venue to be completed – with Lea Valley Regional Park Authority taking over the facilities for the public opening in Spring 2011.
This project was the venue for the White Water Canoeing events during the London 2012 Olympics. It is now the home of the British Canoe Unions performance squad, as well as being utilised as a rafting venue for the general public.
