Density
Planning application 14/13247 ( Sept 2015 )
The proposals for this site are quite clearly over developed.
A recent House of Commons report concluded that "the proposition that tall buildings are necessary to prevent suburban sprawl, is impossible to sustain. They do not necessarily achieve higher densities than mid or low rise development and in some cases are a less efficient use of the space" Their contribution to urban renaissance was "very limited." Tall buildings should not be the optimal choice for Kingston.
