  • Historical and Contemporary Archaeologies of Social Housing: Changing Experiences of the Modern and New, 1870 to Present
    Historical and contemporary archaeologies of social housing: changing experiences of the modern and new, 1870 to present Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Emma Dwyer School of Archaeology and Ancient History University of Leicester 2014 Thesis abstract: Historical and contemporary archaeologies of social housing: changing experiences of the modern and new, 1870 to present Emma Dwyer This thesis has used building recording techniques, documentary research and oral history testimonies to explore how concepts of the modern and new between the 1870s and 1930s shaped the urban built environment, through the study of a particular kind of infrastructure that was developed to meet the needs of expanding cities at this time – social (or municipal) housing – and how social housing was perceived and experienced as a new kind of built environment, by planners, architects, local government and residents. This thesis also addressed how the concepts and priorities of the Victorian and Edwardian periods, and the decisions made by those in authority regarding the form of social housing, continue to shape the urban built environment and impact on the lived experience of social housing today. In order to address this, two research questions were devised: How can changing attitudes and responses to the nature of modern life between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries be seen in the built environment, specifically in the form and use of social housing? Can contradictions between these earlier notions of the modern and new, and our own be seen in the responses of official authority and residents to the built environment? The research questions were applied to three case study areas, three housing estates constructed between 1910 and 1932 in Birmingham, London and Liverpool.

Final General Management Plan / Environmental Impact Statement _____________________________________________________________________________ Mary McLeod Bethune Council House National Historic Site Washington, District of Columbia The National Park Service is preparing a general management plan to clearly define a direction for resource preservation and visitor use at the Mary McLeod Bethune Council House National Historic Site for the next 10 to 15 years. A general management plan takes a long-range view and provides a framework for proactive decision making about visitor use, managing the natural and cultural resources at the site, developing the site, and addressing future opportunities and problems. This is the first NPS comprehensive management plan prepared f or the national historic site. As required, this general management plan presents to the public a range of alternatives for managing the site, including a preferred alternative; the management plan also analyzes and presents the resource and socioeconomic impacts or consequences of implementing each of those alternatives the “Environmental Consequences” section of this document. All alternatives propose new interpretive exhibits. Alternative 1, a “no-action” alternative, presents what would happen under a continuation of current management trends and provides a basis for comparing the other alternatives. Al t e r n a t i v e 2 , the preferred alternative, expands interpretation of the house and the life of Bethune, and the archives. It recommends the purchase and rehabilitation of an adjacent row house to provide space for orientation, restrooms, and offices. Moving visitor orientation to an adjacent building would provide additional visitor services while slightly decreasing the impacts of visitors on the historic structure.

  • Austerity in a Disadvantaged West Midlands Neighbourhood
    Austerity in a disadvantaged West Midlands neighbourhood: Everyday experiences of families and family support professionals Demelza Jones, University of Gloucestershire (corresponding author – [email protected]) Pam Lowe, Aston University Karen West, University of Bristol Abstract This article examines everyday effects of austerity in Kingshurst – a disadvantaged urban neighbourhood in the West Midlands. It draws on qualitative data gathered from local families with children, and public and third sector professionals working in the area in family support services. While some of the issues raised are common to other disadvantaged communities across the UK, we recognise that austerity is experienced in specific socio-spatial context: in this case, Kingshurst’s circumstance of deprivation within a local authority borough that (as a whole) is above averagely affluent. This shaped the ways that residents and professionals framed the disadvantage they encountered in their everyday lives and work, in particular strengthening understandings of austerity as unfairly and unevenly experienced on the bases of geography and social class, and highlighting territorial stigma towards the neighbourhood by professionals and decision-makers which impeded residents’ engagement with the family support services available to them locally. Key words: Austerity; disadvantage; families; stigma; neighbourhood Introduction Austerity refers to the programmes of fiscal tightening adopted by most Western governments after the global financial crisis of 2007-8. In the UK context, while the New Labour government adopted limited austerity measures in the immediate aftermath of the crisis, it was following the 2010 general election and the formation of the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition that austerity emerged as a central policy project - extended and deepened under subsequent Conservative governments since 2015.

  • Estate Regeneration
    ESTATE REGENERATION sourcebook Estate Regeneration Sourcebook Content: Gavin McLaughlin © February 2015 Urban Design London All rights reserved [email protected] www.urbandesignlondon.com Cover image: Colville Phase 2 Karakusevic Carson Architects 2 Preface As we all struggle to meet the scale and complexity of London’s housing challenges, it is heartening to see the huge number of successful estate regeneration projects that are underway in the capital. From Kidbrooke to Woodberry Down, Clapham Park to Graeme Park, South Acton to West Hendon, there are estates being transformed all across London. All are complicated, but most are moving ahead with pace, delivering more homes of all tenures and types, to a better quality, and are offering improved accommodation, amenities and environments for existing residents and newcomers alike. The key to success in projects as complex as estate regeneration lies in the quality of the partnerships and project teams that deliver them and, crucially, in the leadership offered by local boroughs. That’s why I welcome this new resource from UDL as a useful tool to help those involved with such projects to see what’s happening elsewhere and to use the networks that London offers to exchange best practice. Learning from the successes – and mistakes – of others is usually the key to getting things right. London is a fascinating laboratory of case studies and this new sourcebook is a welcome reference point for those already working on estate regeneration projects or those who may be considering doing so in the future. David Lunts Executive Director of Housing and Land at the GLA Introduction There is a really positive feeling around estate regeneration in London at the moment.
