Iteration 2
Section
Boot room. This space acts as a transition between the outside (post football game at Hulme FC) and the changing rooms. This allows any dirty boots etc to be removed before entering the 'clean' inside.
Changing rooms. 3 Modules allowing for variation between male and female changing space depending on the events the building is hosting.
Kitchen below the seating space of the cafe above.
The three 5 a side pitches line up to become one larger pitch.
Medical and storage facilites sit opposite the football pitches for ease of movement.
Public square can be used for outside events such as markets, shows and sports.
Ground Plan
A high wall would have to border the exteror football space and the A road.
'Street football' space. This space does not achieve its role as being a 'street'. This area is withdrawn from the streets and the main routes through the site.
Lounge space
Cafe/ Interior 'arena space' taken from EYE.
