Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

Re: Northumberland Development Project

Sorry Dubai, its out of sync. I deleted the last post as it seemed a bit of a mess.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

Google gives the full article with signing up, its not the stadium roof but the Sainsburys and education roof. Nice confirmation last line though

KGM wins £3m Spurs roofing contract

26 February, 2013 | By Chris Berkin

Roofing Firm KGM has won a £3m contract to install roofing and cladding on the £400m Tottenham Hotspur development at Northumberland Park.

The job will cover a new Sainsbury’s supermarket, which will be one of the largest in London at 12,000 square metres.

The development also covers 10,200 square metres of commercial and educational space above the supermarket.

KGM will have a full-time project management team based on site, in addition to the roofing and cladding teams.

Mick Papworth, managing director of KGM said: “We are delighted to have been awarded this major contract which has contributed greatly to the £4.4 Million of orders we received in January, breaking all previous sales records already this year!”

Work will begin in March, with the store due to open in November

That's one expensive roof for a supermarket.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

No worries. I'm sure most of us are looking forward to the new stadium more than we are the Sainsbury's, though. :)
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

Its got to hold up all the 4x4s on matchdays, and the 400 spaces for everyday shoppers.

I see you've spotted that car park on Northumberland Park just before the Bill Nick. (Next to Park Court I think)

Re: Sainsburys, opening in November,thats good going

Re: Sainsburys, opening in November,thats good going

Yeah, noticed the school too. Its for the box owners, so they have to leave the cars and venture into the meer mortals on a current match day.

No doubt they will all be on top of the Supermarket whilst using there own designated walkway to there own boxes once completion of the stadium.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

I have a friend working on the training ground in lancing, soon to be the home of brighton and hove albion. I am trying to wrangle the contract to fit the locks for the place. If i get it i shall ask poyet if he fancies coming back to spurs one day.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

Not sure whether or not this is the educational establishment that will occupy the remaining section of the northern NDP / supermarket development:

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FOOTBALL CLUB'S JOINT BID FOR NEW UNIVERSITY TECHNICAL COLLEGE APPROVED BY GOVERNMENT
Posted 28 March 2013 00:05am

• Joint bid by Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, Middlesex University and other partners to establish a University Technical College approved by Department for Education and Baker Dearing Trust
• UTC would represent another important development in the sport-led regeneration of Tottenham
• Creating new educational opportunities for 14-18 years old delivering an integrated academic and technical curriculum

The Club is delighted to announce that its bid for a new University Technical College (UTC) for Tottenham has today (Thursday, March 28) been approved by the Department for Education and the Baker Dearing Trust.
The Club’s bid is a joint application with Middlesex University and would see the establishment of a brand new high quality, full-time education alternative for 14-18 year olds across North London, offering a unique specialism of ‘The Technology of Science, Sport and Health’ - chosen to fit with the predicted future employment and skills needs of the area and the unique partnership with a Premier League football club.

Daniel Levy, Chairman, Tottenham Hotspur Football Club said: “Tottenham is an area in desperate need of regeneration and, as one of its main employers, we recognise the unique role we have in this community to effect change. We are delighted that our joint bid to create a UTC in Tottenham has been successful.

“The Tottenham UTC would deliver significant benefits for young people across North London by providing a high quality, targeted education that would equip them with key technical skills and enable them to take up jobs in the future.

“Delivering a curriculum around sport, science and health, both our Club and our Foundation would be involved in it, making it a truly unique and compelling educational facility.”

Melvyn Keen, Deputy Chief Executive, Middlesex University said: “There are many exciting career opportunities in science, health and sport and these industries are hungry for skilled staff and ambitious graduates. We’re delighted to sponsor a project that will harness the talent of young people in North London, and we look forward to working with our Tottenham UTC partners to create some really exciting opportunities.”

Planning around the delivery of the UTC will now begin and will include a consultation phase with parents and businesses.

The Tottenham UTC would combine the specialist area of technical study alongside the core curriculum required for 14-18 year olds and will do so by integrating the technical and academic education with practical work being valued as highly as academic study.

As well as Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and Middlesex University, the new institution would also be supported by Festo UK, National Instruments, Fusion Lifestyle, and Mindsets UK.

Re: Northumberland Development Project

great regeneration initiative. No easy thing getting a University on board but a lot of benefits in terms of lifting the profile/livability/economy of the surrounding area.

Isn't there a school associated with the Brook House site? Although I think that involved a partnership with Highgate School, so you could be right this is to use space in the northern NDP site.

Not saying you are wrong to wonder if it's part of the NDP, it could be, but generally the initiative for UTC's is to rejuvenate existing buildings, and the budget allowed for them usually reflects this.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

I'm guessing, but if this is not the Brook House school, I would imagine most of the classes would be at a Middlesex University site, with some specific classes using the NPD facilities. For Sports Science, the training centre might be a place for some instruction.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

Always thought why don't Spurs set up a school for the academy people to learn at and pay for it all so they get a top class education as well as their football coaching? Would cost a bit but surely be worth it.

Also whats the news on the stadium - thought construction was meant to start this summer. Looks unlikely now.

Martin Chivers mentioned in passing on Talkbrick the other night that the project has been delayed. For a moment I half-wondered, given his quasi-ambassadorial role with the club, whether he's heard some new itk, but then assumed he's most likely referring to the delay in securing naming rights.
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

I realise there is a great deal of work etc being done with significant and noticeable progress made in and around the area but im just gonna put it out there

When is the actual stadium work commencing? or has this not been announced yet?
 
Re: Northumberland Development Project

Not been announced, people thought it would be this summer but seems unlikely with no announcement so far. Probably looking to sort out the naming rights and that might depend a bit on if we get CL.

I can't see one year in the champions league without the new stadium name determining how much we would get for naming rights.


Doesn't add up to me.

I read somewhere the other day that the naming rights have been agreed, but can't be announced till summer 2015, i.e. one year before the stadium opens, because of the exclusivity deals with existing sponsors.

No but maybe Danny boy thinks he would have better bargaining chips if he went into negotiations with a EL trophy and CL qualification sewn up
