It is true that tall buildings have surged massively in the past decade or so and at the same time the housing crisis has catastrophically deepened... yet will a public poll on every tower really make any difference? 🏙️architectsjournal.co.uk/news/thinktank…
@cityoflondon @CSkidmoreUK Even Lizz Truss would wince at this level of hutzpah given the City of London's "position" is that there is no climate emergency!
@BarbicanQuarter @guardian Adding this / from the archive: The amount of construction waste in the #CityOfLondon alone is distressing & apparently very little is being done to reduce it. And we’re just talking about *skips* here ! Then there’s all the demolition-related waste ..

Hope @michaelgove is paying heed to pleas to call-in plans to demolish historic architecture & cultural space and replace with massive tower blocks. No active listening to the community. No understanding of short-term carbon impact. @CSaumarezSmith @TheCriticMag @BarbicanQuarter

@VanishedLondon Clearly London’s #DataStore/@LDN_data is having difficulty locating the #MuseumOfLondon .. Not surprising really, given that it CLOSED in December 2022 :( #LondonWallWest

Interesting exchange at CoL's Court of Common Council meeting earlier this week, in which Deputy Marianne Fredericks asks about 'curtailing' of questions following London Wall West meeting. From c. 43 mins. youtube.com/watch?v=ISUMLy…
Please OBJECT and protect @bevismarksuk
📑 Both parties have debuffs, P&M have the COI (until August 2024) and the City dragon has Article 31 (until Gove does something); P&M are armed with a 30 inch beam compass and T square respectively. Give architects big scary tools again

How did a plan to develop the site of the Museum of London so rapidly devolve from a shining concert hall into plans for looming, soulless tower blocks @CSaumarezSmith on the story of London Wall West thecritic.co.uk/a-wilting-wall…
This is very worrying.
This is very worrying.
We know that Gove is looking at this application & @C20Society now calls on him to commit to taking it on & reviewing it at a public inquiry
@BarbicanQuarter “Climate emergency is not the position of the city of London”. Do they live in an alternative planet?
@Aldersgate74850 @BarbicanQuarter The chairman @ShravanJoshi didn’t allow a debate on merits as a motion was brought forward by Brian Mooney CC and Henry Pollard CC to go to a vote post questions to officers, applicant and objectors. Is this legally allowed? How does @cityoflondon get away with this?
