  • The Mayor Recognises That Street
    Planning for Markets: Understanding the role of planning policy and management approaches in sustaining markets in London Rosita Aiesha Bartlett School of Planning University College London (UCL) MPhil Town Planning 1 I, Rosita Aiesha, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ………………………………….. 2 Abstract Over the last decade, there has been a growing interest amongst policy makers in the market’s potential role in contributing to solutions in key social and economic public policy agendas. In particular, Planning Policy Statement 6: Planning for Town Centres suggests that markets have a role to play in revitalising town centres and offering retail choice. To date, very little is known about the contemporary relevance of markets and specifically why markets have been prioritised in retail planning policy and received public policy interest. This paper investigates these issues further. Through a literature review, it develops a conceptual and contextual framework for understanding markets. It then draws on empirical research, i.e. survey and interview data from a study of London boroughs and a case study of one London Local Authority (Camden), to highlight the effects of current day-to-day management and planning approaches in sustaining markets. The research demonstrates that the contemporary role of the market is multidimensional, e.g. they appear to play significant roles as managed public space but also act as an important social and economic space, particularly for marginal social groups. Moreover, the empirical evidence shows that, whilst proactive planning policies do not guarantee a vibrant market, they can play a key part in protecting their permanent loss; however, equally important is the supportive management approaches taken in shaping their social survival.

  • King's Cross Station on the Northern Edge of Central London, Picking up the Story in the Late 1980S and Concentrating on the Last Decade
    King’s Cross: renaissance for whom? Michael Edwards Edwards, Michael (2009 forthcoming) 'King’s Cross: renaissance for whom?', in (ed Punter, John) Urban Design, Urban Renaissance and British Cities, London: Routledge, chapter 11 (this version is as submitted for publication.) Minor corrections January 2009. Introduction This chapter examines the planning and development history of the area around King's Cross station on the northern edge of central London, picking up the story in the late 1980s and concentrating on the last decade. In the late 80s London was in the grip of a major property boom, outcome of the de-regulation of the Thatcher period, in which a speculative surge in office property development was replacing and expanding the building stock of central London, pushing upwards but also outwards and lapping at areas like King's Cross. At its core, London is polycentric with its main concentrations of activity around the Bank of England in the Roman and mediaeval 'City', around the Westminster concentration of government, royalty and diplomacy and with shopping and entertainment just to the west and north of Westminster. Between these eastern and western poles lie areas in Fleet Street, Holborn and Covent Garden which have transformed dramatically in the 20th century with the exodus of wholesale vegetable trading from Covent Garden, newspapers and printing from Fleet Street and the assimilation of the urban fabric into retail, entertainment and cultural uses in Covent Garden and offices in Holborn and Fleet Street, strongly linked to the legal profession. The whole of this 'centre' is ringed by the Circle Line of the underground.
