Walking the Walk: A Sustainable Urbanism Themed Tour of Marylebone

Given the climate and biodiversity crises we currently face, there is an urgent need to make urban environments more sustainable. This walking tour has been produced to raise awareness of key issues, and to highlight ways that cities can be redesigned to prioritise sustainability principles. In line with UN Sustainable Development Goal 11, there is a particular focus on inclusivity, resilience, and sustainability.Following this route through central London will encourage you to reflect on the significance of the places you are passing through. Learning through walking is a long established practice, and one that fits the University of Westminster’s commitment to active, experimental education. The tour links two of the University’s campuses in central London, and we hope it will encourage staff and students to walk between sites.ROUTE NOTES:Listening Point 1 - Marylebone road monitoring stationListening Point 2 - Paddington Street Gardens public toiletsListening Point 3 - Paddington Street GardensListening Point 4 - Marylebone High StreetListening Point 5 - Manchester SquareListening Point 6 - Hinde StreetListening Point 7 - Marylebone LaneListening Point 8 - Wigmore PlaceListening Point 9 - Cavendish SquareListening point 10 - 309 Regent StreetYou can find out more information about the route along with a handy map on the Open City website Hosted on Acast.
