Possible sites for year six major design
project
Local or well known to myself
Anglesey Holyhead Marina area... (context... existing
building left deserted, not much in the way of other
built structures)
Plans for a 100m marina development at Holyhead can be
decided by Anglesey council after the Welsh government
said it did not need to get involved.
The plan was given outline permission in June butAnglesey officials sought advice from the Welsh
government.
Objectors had wanted the plan considered by a minister
because they claim it will destroy Newry beach.
But the developers say it is an "exciting and ambitious"
scheme with 700 jobs and "significant benefits".
It includes a 500-berth marina, 326 homes, a hotel andbusiness premises.
The development is a joint venture between Stena Line and
Conygar Investment Company.
The Proposal covers three distinct character areas:
Newry Beach and Green open space areas includingformal Gardens
Porth y Felin
Soldiers Point and the Great Breakwater
The concept is to develop these important and distinctivecharacter areas to expand, enhance and rejuvenateHolyhead town in a sustainable manner by:
Attracting more visitors to both Holyhead andAnglesey through enhancement of the area as a leisureand tourism destination;

Holyhead
Information Soldiers Point Hotel, also known as theOld Castle building, was built in 1848
as the residence of the Engineer in
charge of the Government-
sponsored alterations to Holyhead
harbour being carried out as part of
improvements to the mail route from
London to Dublin. John Hawkshaw succeeded
James Meadows Rendel in this post whenthe latter died in 1856.
The grounds of this two-storey
castellated Victorian mansion are bounded
by curtain walls with folly towers
one of which, looking out onto the
harbour, functioned as a pillbox during
the Second World War.
Over the years, the house has been usedas a private residence as well as as a
hotel, and has been derelict for a number
of years. In September 2011 the property
was gutted by a fire; at the time it had
apparently been occupied by homeless
people.
The house is owned by Conygar Stenaa
partnership between Stena Line and theConygar Investment Companyand features
in their ambitious waterfront
regeneration plans for the town. In the
proposals, which were unveiled in 2010,
the house would be renovated as a new,
larger home for Holyheads Maritime
Museum.

Nerja Spain
San Joaqun Sugar MillThe San Joaquin Sugar Mill, located between Nerja and Maro on the old coast road, is
now derelict. The mill was built in 1884 by Francisco Cantarero and owned by the
Marquis de Tous. It closed down in 1911 and then, in 1930, was acquired by the Larios
sugar company and reopened. A distillery was also part of the complex.
There were also mills at Maro, Nerja, Frigiliana and Torrox. The nearby Eagle Aquaduct,
built to supply the factory, continues to be used by local farmers for irrigation.
The remains of a bridge and a roman road, which passed close to the Roman town of
Detunda (Maro), have been unearthed in the area.

Cities that have a good mix ofarchitecture new and old
Copenhagen / kbenhavn
Danish attention to detail is absolutely stunning.
Besides the wonderful historic architecture, Copenhagen
is filled with contemporary architecture of the highest
quality. Remarkably, you rarely find the new clashing
with the old. More often than not, the contemporary
architecture in Copenhagen actually heightens the
experience of the historic buildings and streets.

Amsterdam
umerous canals, Renaissance architecture, and bike
friendly culture, modern or contemporary architecture.
Amsterdam is best known for its luxurious canal houses
and charming gabled facades
msterdam is known for the series of canals that encircle
in a horseshoe shape and crisscross each other throughout
the city even though it is below-sea-level. As such, the
residents have had to find ways of dealing with the water
and soft ground. Houses are built on sturdy pilings to
assure a solid foundation. Although you will see manycockeyed canal houses, some held up by huge logs, most
buildings have been where they are for centuries. Many
people are under the wrong impression that lots of old
canal houses in Amsterdam are leaning forwards or have
gone squinty over the years. Not so. They were mainly
built like that so that the gable was further out into
the street to make it easier to haul everything in via
the hook and window.
