Kentish Town Sports Centre reopens

By Tom Walker    27 Jul 2010

The Kentish Town Sports Centre in London reopened yesterday (26 July) following a comprehensive £25m redevelopment of the Grade II-listed Victorian building.

Facilities at the new centre include three swimming pools, a 90-station health and fitness club equipped by Technogym, a Kinesis area, a Power Plate zone, a large group exercise studio and a Wii Fit interactive zone.

Work also included the refurbishment of the centre’s heritage features – such as the main Willes pool roof and façade – and the creation of a new café.

The redevelopment project was undertaken by a team which included Roberts Limbrick Architects; construction consultants Davis Langdon; property experts Cyril Sweett; Max Fordham Consulting Engineers; Alan Baxter & Associates; and Wates Construction.

The building has achieved a Very Good BREEAM (environmental building assessment) rating and has been designed to be more eco-friendly and cheaper to run by using an existing bore-hole to supply water to the pools.

The centre will be managed by Greenwich Leisure on behalf of London Borough of Camden council.
