  • High Rise Buildings in London – from 1066 up to Today
    John Harvey, IRIS Consulting, Article on Tall Buildings in London Based on a talk given to the Society of Quantity surveyors in June 2015 This article reviews the history of high rise buildings in London – from 1066 up to today. First it provides some basic facts and history about London’s tallest buildings Secondly it looks back at trends and developments affecting high rise construction over the past 100 years or so Finally it assesses what has happened in the last decade or so and looks ahead to the 250 high rise buildings that currently have been approved or are in the pipeline So first some historical perspectives starting with the Norman invasion in 1066 and the construction of the Tower of London by William the Conqueror and his successors. So this history of tall buildings in London begins with the completion of the White Tower, a part of the Tower of London, in 1098. For over a hundred years between 1098 and 1310 the White Tower in the Tower of London was London’s tallest structure. It was 90 feet high or 27 metres (of course in those days the French were not using metres!) The White Tower’s claim to be the tallest building only fell when the old St Paul’s Cathedral was built and completed. Although there is some debate and no absolutely authentic measurement records there are reports that the spire of the old St Paul’s was 493 feet high (160 metres). That spire was destroyed by lightning in 1561 100 years before the Great Fire of London.

It is an EPSRC-funded project that began in April 2016 and continues until August 2019. Freight transport currently makes up around 16% of all road vehicle activity in our cities and by 2030, the EU would like to see largely CO2-free logistics systems operating in our urban centres. With van traffic predicted to increase by 20% in London by 2030, and the uptake of alternatively fuelled and electric goods vehicles slow, more radical strategies are needed to reduce the numbers and impacts of freight vehicles in our cities. Working with parcel carriers in London, this project will examine the potential for closer operational collaboration between carriers to reduce urban traffic and energy demand whilst maintaining customer service levels, and evaluate to what extent such relationships can develop naturally within a commercial setting or whether a 3rd party ‘Freight Traffic Controller’ (FTC) would be necessary to ensure equitable distribution of demand across a city.

  • 'Movers & Shakers in Retail Top 100' Report for 2017
    Welcome Welcome to the latest annual ‘Retail Insider Top 100 Movers & Shakers Glynn Davis in Retail’ report that highlights the achievements of those individuals Retailinsider.com who are helping to build their businesses by fully grasping the opportunity twitter @glynndavis presented by digital. Needless to say, in the eight years that the report has been produced it has had to evolve in order to reflect the industry and the people it is seeking to represent. Eight years down the line it is absolutely the case that the entire retail sector is in the midst of a digital transformation and so arguably this report has never been more relevant. As with last year, the people in the report are increasingly not holding the titles of e-commerce or multi-channel directors but are heading up businesses. These are the digitally focused retailers that are setting the pace and leaving many others in something of a predicament. When taking a look at the highest achievers in this report it is clear how the retail landscape is changing and where the future, and the positions of power and influence, potentially lies. However, while lots of things are changing in the industry the aim of the report remains the same in that it looks for individuals that are contributing to their organisations through outstanding achievement and showing innovative tendencies. I would very much like to thank the Advisory Panel involved in this year’s report who contributed greatly to the process and helped ensure that the final product has credibility. Finally, it’s a big thank you to K3 Retail for their highly valued continued sponsorship of this Movers & Shakers report that I feel contributes to the sector by pointing the way forward though highlighting its most valuable asset: people.
