Best of London 2020 Preview 47720 Welcome to London 2016: One of the world’s great – and most di- visited – cities, London has something for everyone: from culture to fi ne food and a mous buzzing party scene. Its energy is intoxicat- ver ing and its diversity inspiring. view This city is deeply multicultural, with one in three nset is LONDON Londoners foreign-born. Britain may have voted for Brexit (although the majority of Londoners TOP SIGHTS, AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES didn’t), but London remains one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities, and diversity infuses daily life, food, music, fashion and art. It inspires festivals such as the now-famed Notting Hill Carnival, and the new annual Borough of Culture celebrations. London is also a city of contrasts. On the one hand, it is constantly changing: witness the evolving skyline, with its statement skyscrapers; the end- less stream of new restaurants, pop-up bars and concept stores; and the myriad new artists, from fashion designers to musicians, that have emerged from its creative milieu. No matter how often you visit, you’ll always find something new. On the other hand, this thirst for innovation has been facilitated by a strong sense of history and of how London came to be London. The city’s buildings are striking milestones in a unique and beguiling biography, and many of them – Big Ben, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London – are instantly recognisable landmarks. Amazingly, all this history and culture leave glorious amounts of green spaces, which are a joy to explore or relax in. London remains one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities, and diversity infuses Emilie Filou, Damian Harper daily life, food, music, fashion and art.

  • Greenwich Park
    GREENWICH PARK CONSERVATION PLAN 2019-2029 GPR_DO_17.0 ‘Greenwich is unique - a place of pilgrimage, as increasing numbers of visitors obviously demonstrate, a place for inspiration, imagination and sheer pleasure. Majestic buildings, park, views, unseen meridian and a wealth of history form a unified whole of international importance. The maintenance and management of this great place requires sensitivity and constant care.’ ROYAL PARKS REVIEW OF GREEWNICH PARK 1995 CHAIRMAN’S FOREWORD Greenwich Park is England’s oldest enclosed public park, a Grade1 listed landscape that forms two thirds of the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site. The parks essential character is created by its dramatic topography juxtaposed with its grand formal landscape design. Its sense of place draws on the magnificent views of sky and river, the modern docklands panorama, the City of London and the remarkable Baroque architectural ensemble which surrounds the park and its established associations with time and space. Still in its 1433 boundaries, with an ancient deer herd and a wealth of natural and historic features Greenwich Park attracts 4.7 million visitors a year which is estimated to rise to 6 million by 2030. We recognise that its capacity as an internationally significant heritage site and a treasured local space is under threat from overuse, tree diseases and a range of infrastructural problems. I am delighted to introduce this Greenwich Park Conservation Plan, developed as part of the Greenwich Park Revealed Project. The plan has been written in a new format which we hope will reflect the importance that we place on creating robust and thoughtful plans.

  • London in Focus – an Insight Into Our Work in This Iconic City and the Greater London Region
    ISSUE 3 - 2019 GRAHAM NEWS AND UPDATES FROM LONDON Introduction Welcome to the third edition of London in Focus – an insight into our work in this iconic city and the Greater London region It has been over two years since our last instalment of London in Focus. During the intervening period, we’ve witnessed a plethora of seismic events, from the vote in favour of leaving the European Union, to the election of Labour’s Sadiq Khan as London Mayor, a snap General Election and the tragedy at Grenfell. Nationally and globally, it has been an era of unprecedented political and economic upheaval. Naturally, investors, developers and public bodies continue to exhibit a degree of caution with regards to capital programmes, infrastructure schemes and routes to market. In terms of the broader health of our economy, construction is often viewed as an accurate barometer. Clearly the industry has slowed in comparison to the spikes of previous years, but the outlook, particularly in London, appears healthy, even optimistic. From our point of view, we’ve enjoyed sustained momentum within the city and the wider region. In parallel, we’ve grown considerably as a Group, recording an annual turnover of £767m for 2018, with a healthy cash balance sheet that puts us in a strong financial position. From the platform of our Old Jewry office, we have completed a range of stellar developments across the city, and its surrounding boroughs, while our order book for the next three years is full of high-profile, cutting edge schemes. Our portfolio features construction, refurbishment and estate rationalisation projects for a range of high-profile universities including UCL and the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, while we are currently upgrading QMUL’s School of Mathematical Sciences.

  • North London Joint Waste Strategy - SEA Draft, May 2008
    The North London Joint Waste Strategy - SEA Draft, May 2008 - North London Joint Waste Strategy SEA Draft May 2008 North London Waste Authority Unit 169, Lee Valley Technopark Ashley Road Tottenham N17 9LN Page 1 The North London Joint Waste Strategy - SEA Draft, May 2008 - FOREWORD Managing North London’s Waste The seven North London boroughs and the North London Waste Authority have achieved much in recent years, through co-ordinated and targeted action on waste prevention, recycling and composting. Our services have never been better. This strategy will be the foundation of still greater improvements as we start to develop and implement the next generation of waste services that will treat waste as a resource and will minimise environmental impacts, particularly those which may contribute to climate change. Above all we will ensure a balanced approach, with value for money on behalf of local council tax payers being essential if waste is truly to be managed in the best interests of North London. This work, however, will need everyone to play their part – all residents, all businesses, all local groups and organisations, and all public services must work to minimise the amount of waste we produce and maximise the amount we recycle and compost. I hope very much you will join us in this endeavour.

  • Young People's Gatherings in the Urban Public Realm Enhancement
    Young People's Gatherings Ref 066 in the Urban Public Realm enhancement of or distraction from its liveability Reem Zako University College London, London, United Kingdom [email protected] Keywords spatial configuration; social structures; urban space; public realm; young people Abstract This paper focuses on where young people gather in the urban public realm, and the effect that this may have on the perceived liveability of an area. Gatherings of young people have become very topical in the UK in recent years, especially because of the way that the public perceives this activity as intimidating and potentially aggressive. This has resulted in much concern by the public and interest by the press about the consequential antisocial nature of these gatherings, leading to government debate and legislation to control the antisocial behaviour of young children and adolescents in public space. The study is based on a questionnaire/survey distributed to residents in twenty housing estates and residential developments in London's city fringe district of Clerkenwell. The aim of the study was to capture the residents' perceptions about the liveability of their locality through an assessment of twenty-four different types of criteria relating to the built environment, including the condition of the urban fabric, the effects of traffic, and the prevalence of anti-social activities and behaviour. The dominant factor affecting the perceived liveability of an area was found to be the extent to which the public realm was blighted by the threatening nature
