Red Zone Posted March 10, 2011 Share So I went to the expo today. The parking situation is a disaster, the old Good Hope Centre is a dog in need of demolition and is realy not suited to the expo, the expo needs to be moved to the CTICC, ample parking and a great place to showcase the largest timed cycle race in the world.

LeTurbo Posted March 10, 2011 Share How many bicycles can park in the space occupied by one car? Get off your lazy buttocks (no reference to Thor here) and ride your fiets! (The Good Hope Centre is a much, much more interesting architectural concept than the CTICC. It just needs some really good maintenance) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I popped in after a meeting in Town, otherwise I would have taken my bike in, I did count three bikes in the bike park though so there are some like minded folks. You surely jest about the GHC being an interesting architectural concept? It is an introspective monolith with no relation to human scale, the broader urban context, it has poor accessibility, limited configuration and restricted application. It is devoid of architectural flair and eloquence. It turns its back on the City and has no relation to the streetscape. I could go on but this is a cycling forum, but to put it in context, The GHC is Shimano Sora, it hardly works and has no character, now if it were Campy Super Record....

Surely we would like to showcase the best the City has to offer? The GHC is beyond repair if you ask me. I'd say demolish the place and extend the Technicon facilities to this site.
