DSDHA model on show at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition
Our model of the future of Camden's West End is on show in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. Commissioned by the London Borough of Camden and now being delivered on site, we envisioned Camden’s West End with a new street hierarchy and five high-quality public spaces, including closing Alfred Place to become a park which will be the first new public green space in the area for over 100 years. The improvements are already radically improving the atmosphere around Tottenham Court Road and Gower St, offering people wider pavements and generous places for streetlife to flourish, along with reduced traffic domination and better public transport connectivity.Tags: West EndShare: -
