I found out recently the Broadwater farm estate is basically built on stilts because it's on the Moselle flood area. I thought the design was just the modernist commitment to creating dangerous urban spaces.

The big question is, of course, whether there will be consequences for the planning consent granted previously. Unless they applied to build houses on stilts or some major engineering takes place that means these meadows are no longer a flood reservoir, I can't see how this development can possibly go ahead.
