Broadway Malyan faces £300k legal claim

摘要

Architect Broadway Malyan is facing a claim for nearly £300,000 from a subcontractor for work on its National Gymnastics Arena in Baku, Azerbaijan, writes Vern Pitt. Papers filed in the High Court state that architect Pattern Design was contracted to provide design work for the arena in April 2011 agreeing to be paid in stages that were based on the RIBA stages of design process. It then provided design work up until December 2011 when project manager Mace informed Broadway Malyan that the client had changed the brief for the project from a 6,000 seat arena to a 9,000 seater.
