////////// Site Documentation_



My site is located at 136 King St, Newtown. It faces Missenden Road, and backs onto the corner of Buckland Lane and Bucknell Street.

Reasons behind choice:

_ The site faces Missenden Road, and therefore the facade can be optimised. Allows different visual lines to be used to attract people from both King St and Missenden.

_ Surrounded by bars and restaurants including Bar Prego, Hiraku Japanese Restaurant and the Malborough Hotel. Ensures a constant stream of passer-bys both day and night.

_ Backs onto a street corner where the site is visible from Soudan Lane, Bucknell Street and Buckland Lane. Means great flexibility in terms of exit points from the site.
