Nottingham - NG5 (Gregory Boulevard)
In this central section of Gregory Boulevard – an avenue constructed and planted out in 1881 – is “The 11-14 Centre” (component) of Djanogly City Academy specialising in information and computer technology. The building, on the former Forest Comprehensive School site, was designed by Foster & Partners and opened in 2003 to replace the Djanogly City Technology College. Both institutions were named after their sponsor, Sir Harry Djanogly, the textile millionaire. Opposite the academy is The Forest, home of the annual Goose Fair.

Djanogly City Academy - Forest Campus
This new building was built 3 or 4 years ago to replace the old Forest comprehensive school. The long (about 3 - 400 metres) and low building is faced with glass and aluminium, and it makes an interesting contrast with the many substantial brick buildings (housing, public buildings, and industrial sites) in this area of Nottingham.
