New low density residential development.

...should, I

believe be banned within at least 2 miles from the centre and existing 70's and 80's estates should eventually be replaced with proper good-quality

residential blocks of the type which forms the handsome housing stock in cities such Paris, Berlin and Rome, often with retail on the ground floor. I loathe

tacky low density with a passion, and it's a crime that this depressing, lonely, anti-city, anti-communal style was ever allowed within our cities. It

isn't urban. And it's isolational. To this end, it pains me to see acres of this cookie-cutter new **** still being built here.

The terraces I make

exception for.

I'll add that I mean the European apartment style as an inclusive type blueprint for all strata in society rather

than yet more yuppie pads.
