about

As we pass the Emirates Arena and Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome it’s worth taking a look at exactly what this new complex says about Glasgow and the city’s plans for the future.

Here is a new centre of sporting excellence, a community sports facility, and – if Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Life have their way – just the start of major new investment and regeneration in the area.

It’s a symbol of physical activity too and that’s something you can see celebrated in the art inspired by the Games. When you get a chance look for the murals inside and outside the Velodrome. They were painted by artists Alistair Wyllie and Amy Whiten of Recoat the streetart hub commissioned to co-ordinate the International Mural Project for Glasgow 2014.

Right now we will keep walking down Clyde Gateway.
