Hopkins are ideal Architects for HH , not least that their deisgn for the Velodrome and Velo park is based on a real consultation with users.
Before they won the bid, which was not expected , they came out to Leyton on a wet tuesday in the winter and sat down with Lea Valley CC and listened to our views on what the Velodrome would be like. They were the only firm to do this.
I also know that they spoke to the Eastway users group as well .
Yes Scarlett, this did include meeting John Summerhayes, who saw Fausto Coppi race @ HH.
