Reinvigorating the Abercrombie Estate

Date: Friday 12 August
Time: 9am for a 9.15am start
Address: Café Roma – Civic Square, Armada Way, Plymouth PL1 1EE

Preparation work to reinvigorate one of some of the city’s most important public spaces is underway.

The civic layout of Plymouth, planned in 1956, was based on Patrick Abercrombie and J Paton Watson’s post-war Plan – A Plan for Plymouth. The team at Plymouth City Council has been sensitively refreshing Abercrombie’s vision for the city. As well as preserving its 20th century credentials, the improvement project includes very 21st century need.

Please feel to bring guests – ladies and gentlemen are all welcome!
