Sport and leisure

This blog enjoys the bit where sport and architecture meet - and two schemes have made it through to this year's RIBA regional awards, which go on to provide the shortlist for the Stirling Prize. Allies & Morrison are in, for their work making the old Highbury Stadium into upmarket flats.













And Nord Architecture, of Glasgow, are nominated for their uncompromising Primary Substation for the London Olympics site in Stratford.
