Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park

Not 'Heritage' as yet but could be in the future? 

A Park in Progress 'backstage' tour to see what had happened since my visit to the Olympic Park last year. Lots of work being undertaken and many of the buildings removed or in the process of being altered.

Initially I had not been keen on UK’s largest piece of public art, the 114-metre ArcelorMittal Orbit, but having looked at it again and been up to the viewing platform I've changed my mind. Great views of London, The City, Canary Wharf and as far as the Northern Heights and the Surrey Hills.  Must go back again once the park opens to the public.
