Welcome to

Stratford Welcome to Stratford, London’s most dynamic district. We can’t wait to show you everything that’s happened since the glorious summer of 2012. The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is now fully open. In this beautiful 226 acre green space, visitors can meander in the meadows and stroll along the waterways, watching for wildlife among the reeds. Some of the spectacular sporting facilities where the world’s finest competitors raised the roof are now yours to enjoy. Make a splash in the wake of champions in the Aquatic Centre; work out in the gym or play badminton in the Copper Box Arena; take a spin round the cycle tracks and trails of the VeloPark. Don’t leave without making the ascent up the iconic ArcelorMittal Orbit for a bird’s eye view of it all, and check out our great programme of activities and events this year. Stratford is now one of Britain’s most popular retail and leisure destinations. Westfield Stratford City has over 300 shops and restaurants, anchored by John Lewis and Marks and Spencer. In Stratford Town Centre, there is a wealth of shops, stalls, bars and cafés, many

of them new, independent businesses, offering the best authentic food and cooking from all corners of the world, along with goods and services at incredible value for money. This part of London is acclaimed for its cultural and cosmopolitan mix, and the nightlife throws a spotlight on the best of it. After a day of sightseeing, sport and shopping, you can relax in the Cultural Quarter, with its theatre, cinema, performing arts centre and restaurants, or the 17-screen cinema, bowling alley and casino over in Westfield Stratford City. We are so proud of the incredible transformation that has been achieved in our area, and we are delighted to welcome you to share it. There are even more exciting plans for the near future, so please come again soon.

Sir Robin Wales Mayor of Newham

WELCOME TO STRATFORD

WELCOME TO LONDON

Welcome to

London The Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2012 were transformative for London. Following the sporting successes, the city is now delivering a legacy that has set the benchmark for future host cities to follow. The regeneration of east London was at the heart of the bid to host the Games, and it is impressive to see what has already been delivered in Stratford. World-class shopping and entertainment await visitors at Westfield Stratford City, along with a chance to catch new shows and up-and-coming artists at the Theatre Royal Stratford East, a beautifully restored Victorian theatre. With the new transport links it is even easier to visit – whether you are arriving from London, elsewhere in the country or from abroad. Exciting developments have been taking place on the Queen Elizabeth

Olympic Park too. It has already hosted a number of fantastic events, from the 2013 Wireless festival to the Anniversary Games, one year on from London 2012. Over the coming years the Park is set to welcome the European Swimming Championships in 2016 and the 2017 IAAF World Athletics Championships among others. I have no doubt that this will cement London and Stratford’s position as a world-leading events destination. All of us here at London & Partners, the Mayor of London’s official promotional and business development company, are delighted to welcome you to London and to Stratford and we are sure that you will enjoy discovering everything on offer.

the queen elizabeth olympic park

London’s newest visitor destination, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is a place unlike any other. The beautifully landscaped south of the Park reopened on 5 April 2014 – and with over 400,000 people taking the opportunity to visit the park in the first month alone, it is fast establishing itself as a great a day out for locals and tourists alike. The Park is open 24 hours a day, and visitors can enjoy open parklands

and tranquil waterways, with imaginative children’s playgrounds and places to relax and eat. The north of the Park offers large green spaces, whilst the south has been designed by some of the world’s leading landscape architects and designers. Look out for the fountains, with special light and sound effects. The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park also offers fantastic facilities and attractions for the whole community. In 2012, the

breathtaking London Aquatics Centre (picture below) was the arena for countless world records. Now everyone can experience the thrill of swimming under the magnificent wave-like roof, for the same price as local leisure centre pools. It has already hosted its first major event – the FINA/NVC Diving World Series – and also offers swimming and diving lessons, Aqua Splash sessions, a 50-station gym and a café.

THREE MILLS GREEN and HOUSE MILL A short walk along the canal from Stratford High Street this tranquil riverside location brings together history, culture, conservation and entertainment. The beautifully

restored 19th century House Mill is Britain’s oldest tidal mill. The Domesday Book of 1086 records eight mills on this stretch of the River Lee, grinding grain for local bakers and also for the London gin trade at various points in history. The House Mill was built in 1776, burnt down and rebuilt shortly after. A coat of arms on the south façade of the Miller’s House bears the date and initials of one-time owner Daniel S. Bisson. The subsequent early 19th century House Mill has been lovingly restored, with much of the impressive internal machinery remaining. Plans are underway to restore the machinery to full working order, for demonstrations and generation of hydro-electricity.

3 Mills Studios is central London’s largest film studio, where independent film maker Danny Boyle worked on the awe-inspiring opening ceremony of the London 2012 Games. Set the children free in Wild Kingdom, a natural and unique play space with fallen trees and giant stumps, rope swings, boulders, hammocks and a trampoline. For budding actors there is a stage set in a natural amphitheatre. The House Mill is open every Sunday from May to October from 11am - 4pm and on the first Sundays in March, April and December, the last tour is at 3.30 pm.

Stratford is being transformed into a new metropolitan centre for London, and the major hub for the booming east of the capital. In a remarkable regeneration project, over £12.5bn is being invested in the future of the area and the people who live and work here through projects including the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Westfield Stratford City and the International Quarter. Visitors now exit Stratford Station to an upgraded Meridian Square, featuring black granite and LED lighting. Opposite, The Shoal, a dramatic sculpture of 80 giant-sized titanium ‘leaves’ on 16 metre poles, shimmers round the Stratford Centre mall. A wide pedestrian link bridge spans the rail lines, connecting Stratford town centre with Westfield Stratford City. Europe’s largest retail and leisure destination has already created around 10,000 jobs,

Hackney Wick and Fish Island 92

visitlondon.com/stratford

A ramble along the Greenway is a great way to experience the energy and creative scene that is blossoming in east London, not to mention all the cafes, bars and restaurants where you can stop to relax and refuel. Begin at the View Tube near Pudding Mill Lane; if you prefer two wheels, you can hire bikes, and follow the Greenway round the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to Fish Island and Hackney Wick. This canal side community of artists and studio spaces is a hive of creativity and innovation. Though many Londoners are only just starting to discover the area, Hackney Wick and Fish Island has been quietly innovating for centuries. Once a thriving Victorian industrial suburb, many of the original factories are now used by creatives, designers and digital specialists. Co-operative workspaces, quirky bars and cafes, public artworks and a vibrant nightlife make this one of the capital’s funkiest communities.

The Wick’s major draw is its canals and towpaths, with a backdrop of monumental industrial buildings, waterside nature, urban street art and a houseboat community. Forman’s Fish Island, designed in the shape of a cut of salmon, has evolved from a family-owned salmon smoking business, established in 1905. It houses a modern British Restaurant, smokehouse, art gallery, and an event and party venue with views of the Olympic Stadium. The White Building is London’s centre for art, technology and sustainability. An incubator for innovation, it serves as a creative lab for artists whose work engages with technology, as well as a resource and venue for residential and educational communities. A unique residency programme offers opportunities for artists to produce new work on an international platform, with studios, and event and exhibitions spaces.

The CRATE Brewery and Pizzeria, situated canal-side in The White Building, has received national and international acclaim, with ZAGAT rating it as one of London’s Hottest New Bars. Ales, bitter and stout are brewed on site, and you can book a tour of the brewery before sampling the range with a stone baked pizza. thewhitebuilding. org.uk cratebrewery.com The Hackney Pearl In an enclave that includes a vinyl shop, a bike shop and an architectural salvage store, the Hackney Pearl is a friendly café/bar serving coffee, wines, beer and cocktails and food. thehackneypearl. com The Yard Theatre, located in a converted warehouse, is a 130seat theatre, bar and kitchen made from recycled materials offering an eclectic programme of leftfield international work.
