1/ THREAD. What did the London County Council ever do for us? ‘Housing Londoners, 1945-60’ suggests quite a lot (with special thanks to @LCCmunicipal) for supplying my copy). For a start, by 1960 the LCC had provided 200,000 new homes, over half since the war.
Architects need to not just create better houses but also help build a sense of community and belonging. Nabeel Hamdi and Bob Greenstreet FRSA on what they learnt from visiting 3 public housing projects in London. https://t.co/a7llywCdvU
