Welcome all of you. Can everybody see and hear me Good. I’m Sam, your guide for this tour of the Bicentennial Park. I hope that you’re all wearing your most comfortable shoes and that you can keep up the pace. So let’s get under way on our tour around this wonderful park.
I’ll start today with some general background information. There used to he a lot of factories in this area until the 1960s. Creating the park required the demolition of lots of derelict buildings on the site, so most of the exciting park space all around you was originally warehouses and storehouses.
The idea of building a public park here was first discussed when a property developer proposed a high-rise housing development, but the local community wasn’t happy. If the land was to be cleaned up, they wanted to use the site for recreation. Residents wanted open space for outdoor activities, rather than housing or even an indoor sports complex.
Now to the Bicentennial Park itself. It has two areas, a nature reserve and a formal park with man-made features and gardens. The tall blue-and-white building in front of us is called The Tower and is the centre point for the formal gardens. It stands twelve meters high, so follow me up the stairs to where we can take advantage of the fantastic views.
A. houses.
B. industrial buildings.
C. shops.
D. parks
