Fantastic win for @civicengineers at the AJ #Retrofit awards. Park Hill won 3 categories incl. the overall winner. Congratulations @MikhailRiches and @UrbanSplash. This shows how with the right approach post war housing estates can be successfully converted for modern living.

The carbon footprint of a drive through is through the roof. Not only do they take up vast amounts of space (when you add the vehicles), they also generate vast amount of polluting car journeys and promote unhealthy transport. Convenience vs Climate .. this needs more debate.

Adapting our town and city local neighbourhoods to be more convenient, friendly and nicer places to be is a big part of the answer. 15 minute neighbourhoods that can be safely and comfortably navigated through walking and cycling will reduce the reliance on the motorcar.
