DOES THE PROPOSAL ENHANCE THE SPECIAL QUALITIES OF CRYSTAL PALACE PARK?
The proposal enhances the special qualities of Crystal Palace Park by: • Placing landmark architecture at its head. • Introducing a world class cultural facility. • Respecting the fundamental landscape architecture of the Park. • Regenerating or encouraging the regeneration of its heritage features. 14. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF PARKING AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT PROVISION? WOULD IT PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PARKING FOR THE LOCAL TRADING COMMUNITY (AND CUSTOMERS)? WOULD IT BE CHARGED FOR? Please see section 9 above. Parking provision is not necessary for the success of the scheme. If the community felt it appropriate to provide parking serving both the sculpture park and the local trading community, this could be provided. If it is provided, then a charge could be made to help subsidise the park, if this is thought necessary/desirable. A national facility on the hill-top ought to result in enhanced public transport provision to the area, for the benefit of the park, the residents and the economy
