Destination
Source BMX Park is located below the promenade. The building, originally constructed in 1879, was extensively altered and remodelled in the 1930's, to provide a spa facility comprising two swimming pools, seaweed baths, saltwater baths, saunas, Turkish Baths, treatment rooms and relaxation areas. The whole complex was constructed beneath the promenade as part of an extensive run of seafront structures and facilities and apart from the entrance building, the facilities are subterranean and are early examples of reinforced concrete structures. The baths were closed in 1978 and the building was turned into an ice rink and roller skating venue. The building was eventually closed in 1997. The site is within a Conservation Area. Saville Jones was appointed to restore and refurbish the building to create an exciting world class BMX and skateboarding facility- creating the world’s largest subterranean skate park.
Work for the next phase of this underground space is almost complete with restaurants, bars and shops known as The Courtyard, inches away from the beach and minutes away from The America Ground, this is an amazing addition to the area.
