Location For Psycho-geographies

My Location I Have Chosen

For my location of interest, I have picked to explore fort regent which will not only allow me to capture the historical factors of the buildings surroundings but shall allow a great view over the urbanised area of St Helier. Although built originally as a Napoleonic fortress, Fort regent has been transformed over the years from a defunct military parade ground and coal storage depot into a wet weather venue for tourists and local visitors to become the largest sports and leisure centre in the Island. Overlooking St Helier the site offers spectacular panoramic views of the south and east coasts as well as the urban area linking directly to the theme of Psychographics.

I think my main focus will be Elizabeth harbour and trying to convey how it has been developed over the years. Fort regent allows a great view over the marina which will help to give an accurate view of it rather than up close shots where you cannot see the most parts of it.  The best part of Elizebeth harbour is man made and would be interesting to try and compare today’s harbour with what it used to look like.
