Architecture and interior design thread

Boris relaxed rules on contaminated and open land.. its was near impossible to build on them just a few years ago.

He said the ‘passion project’, which received widespread backing from residents and was unanimously approved by Southwark Council’s planning committee, had been developed through ‘an intensive consultation period to ensure that the disused land was regenerated as sensitively as possible’.

Contentious if it didn’t have local backing, right?

Derelict land utilised for social housing, I can see that being highly controversial, especially in Peckham Rye.
