Crystal Palace Subway (original) (raw)

September 2024 - Karl Richter and Jules Hussey, Co-founders of Friends of Crystal Palace Subway, said: “Fourteen years ago the Friends of Crystal Palace Subway began the journey to realise the reopening of the Subway. Over the intervening years, countless individuals, groups, and local businesses in Crystal Palace have lent their support to this restoration project, whether through donating funds or their time by volunteering on open house days for the public. The support of Bromley Council and Historic England has been pivotal to the successful realisation of this new era for the Subway and we are indebted to all those in the surrounding communities who determinedly backed the project to reach this incredible point.”

FCPS had three simple aims, to open the Crystal Palace Subway for scheduled public access, to work with local stakeholder groups regarding public access to the subway, and to support a broader, long-term sustainable plan for the subway, Crystal Palace Park, and the surrounding area. With the completion of the restoration this grass roots community group has met its aims, and the organisation has dissolved. This website will tell you something about the subway and the work of the Friends.
