The River at Night: LFA 2017
Lucy Musgrave, Vicky Wägner and Satu Streatfield from the Publica led a guided walk for the public on the evening on 29th June as part of LFA 2017 entitled ‘The River at Night’.
The tour lead participants along the river at night and allowed them to gain awareness of how darkness and lighting affect the way we see and experience riverside public space. The walk began by tracing the historic edge of the north bank, exploring the variety of after-dark environments that have evolved along the river and they examined the way in which light ‘edits’ views of the city after nightfall. The tour highlighted the history of civic ambition that shaped the public spaces and infrastructure along the river and encouraged participants to imagine the future potential of these spaces. Thank you to everyone who came along and joined us on this unique journey.
