Belfast GIE part 1

This years GIE will require detailed study of the AIB, in particular the maps. Item 2 explores the work of the Laganside Corporation. A useful way to familiarize yourself with this item will be to produce a map, based on OS map extract from page 9, similar to that you have previously produced for Trafford Park UDC.


Take a copy of the map below. Zoom in on Laganside, cut, paste the area and annotate using text boxes to show how the Laganside Corporation has been able to stimulate developments in each of the following categories

• commercial and office developments



• leisure and tourism



• infrastructure- transport



• retailing



• housing



• environmental improvements

Each annotation should be precisely located. You will need to use results of previous research and the internet.

This map is just for reference, a colour version of your AIB.
