Densified housing needed for London

13th March 2015

Nick Curtis, writing in the Evening Standard, reports on the increasing popularity of high-rise buildings in London, as places to live and invest in. He comments that, although critics have suggested that each tower is a blight on the historic character of London or that luxury residential developments are taken up by investors where areas become ghost towns full of empty lock-and-leave properties, London needs densified housing to meet the needs of its growing population. Champions of tall buildings claim they can give an area identity and even improve the public realm, he adds.
