They've moved the skatepark over to the right hand side of the hill which leads down into Princess Anne Park, So the Leisure Centre go onto where the Skate Park used to be, I think they'll build the Swimming Pool/Sports Hall First in lower part like the old one then fit in the gym etc aswell, I don't it'll be a 2 story Building. Plus that area is bigger than the current it is situated to I don't think it'll spill over unless they plan on putting an out door Football/Tennis Courts etc aswell which would be good. The main problem is demolishing it due to the bridge into the Galleries.
