Are they building it now? Meh you wouldn't be able to see it for a while as i guess they haven't refreshed the pictures in years.
Twiglet
yeah i tried to find an arial view of the new concrete at kings park (which is about 6 months old now) and they still dont have it, its just bare grass.

Outside a Police station is a spot for me too so 'well done' yourself mate.
spyrolot
its a bit stupid aint it? i mean, the police generally hate skateboarders. i know if your polite they arent too much of cunts. but like, when i was skating with onslo, tre and.... someone else. (em_tsuj i think), we has finished skating and were skating along and these police came over and told us off and went on how they had calls about us skateboarding and all this rubbish. ive never had a good police/security guard skate experience.

Once it was a 2cm high to 2ft tall swimming pool that everyone in dagenham used then they broke it and put some broken ramps and grind rails in it and left it for yhose drunk scum bags to ruin it with graffiti and broken beer bottles and bmx's
