The original Crystal Palace was built in Hyde Park in London for the Great Exhibition in 1851. When the exhibition was over, it was dismantled and rebuilt in Upper Norwood, a suburb of southeast London. It was destroyed by fire in 1936 but the foundations still remain. The Upper Norwood area is now usually known as Crystal Palace and has a football (soccer) team named after it.

The Crystal Palace was built in Hyde Park, London for the Great Exhibition of 1851 as a showcase for the ingenuity of Victorian inventers and manufacturers. After the exhibition, it was dismantled and re-assembled in Upper Norwood, a district in South London and one of the highest points of London. It burned down in 1936 but the stone plinths can still be seen. There have been various proposals to re-develop the site, including building a hotel, but none have come to fruition. The local football team is called Crystal Palace and local people often refer to Upper Norwood as Crystal Palace.
Upon their original formation in 1905, Crystal Palace became known as the Glaziers. Since 1973, the team have been known as the Eagles.
