I don't think it's that bad either. It's not a great place for families though (which is why there aren't many living there; go and have a walk round there, it's unlikely you'll see any children out playing). Hence why I question it's inclusivity. It's great for City workers, childless couples, young 'professionals'. Beyond that, I think it is limited. It would work brilliantly as part of a university complex, but that will never happen.
It's showing it's age, physically. And it's getting increasingly hemmed in by the proliferation of skyscrapers being built nearby. It's not the airiest and lightest of places as it is.
