  • 女王草坪（英語：Queen's Lawn）是倫敦帝國學院南肯星頓校園中央的一片綠化地帶，位於女王塔旁邊。面積約為1600平方米，草地旁植有和多棵由舊生和名人種下的紀念樹木。草坪也為學院舉行多種活動，例如迎新日提供了場地。 2006年4月，學院學生報紙報導，校方已經向西敏市委員會申請，用草坪多至三分之一的面積來建築一座三層高的接待性樓房。雖然市議會尚未批覆，但這個計劃引起了很多學生的反對，導致一連串的抗議行動。2006年5月，報紙再度揭發，發展計劃是由一間叫“SykesCorp”的私人公司申請的，該公司名稱和校長（Richard Sykes）名字相似。西克校長馬上受到強烈的批評，指他的作為和不久以前學院推行的綠化運動背道而馳，把女王草坪當成“國王西克的草坪”。 (zh)

  • The Queen's Lawn is a green lawned area situated at the centre of Imperial College London's South Kensington campus, next to the Queen's Tower and immediately to the north of Imperial College Road. It provides an open space of 1,600 sq metres, and is surrounded by the Central Library, and the Sherfield administration, Chemistry, and Skempton buildings. It is often the site of college events, including student bands, fairs, and balls, as well as student activism. In April 2006, the Imperial College student newspaper Felix reported that the college was seeking permission of Westminster City Council to develop part of the lawn into a three-storey modular building, however this has not come to pass. A weekly farmer's market is held on Tuesdays, and Queen's Lawn was also the site of a world record attempt for the largest jelly mosaic. * Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture with bells and cannon fire, performed annually on the Queen's Lawn. The base of the Queen's Tower can be seen at the top of the picture * The Central Library, the college's main academic library, overlooks Queen's Lawn. The top two floors were built as part of a modern extension to the library * Sherfield Building, the central administrative building, from across the lawn. On the first floor are the junior and senior common rooms * Imperial College Road runs along the south side of the lawn. The Chemistry Building is across the road (en)
