Opis
In Building Southwark: Architecture and Regeneration in a London Borough, the renowned architecture writer and critic Kenneth Powell continues the story of one of Britain’s most dynamic and successful areas of regeneration.
While this architectural renaissance – which began in the 1980s – is evident most publicly along the south bank of the Thames, it extends throughout the borough, from Walworth to Peckham and from Bermondsey to Dulwich. Its impact can be seen in the creation of cultural venues, the revival of industrial spaces for residential and commercial use and shared working, and the generation of a wealth of stunning new – and already iconic – projects. This comprehensive and fully illustrated book describes more than 50 projects that have been built in Southwark in the new millennium. Arranged according to building type, they include such well-known landmarks as the extension to the Tate Modern, the Shard and the redeveloped London Bridge station, as well as diverse social, cultural, healthcare and education projects, from the refurbishment of King’s Reach Tower (now the South Bank Tower) to the new cancer centre at Guy’s and St Thomas’s hospital and the transformation of Burgess Park. Following the introduction, which offers an overview of the architectural strategy in the borough, the entries are divided into Cultural/Leisure, Housing, Infrastructure/Jobs, Mixed-use, Education and Landscape projects. Forthcoming projects – those under construction – are also included, among them the enormous undertaking of Elephant & Castle town centre, Walworth Town Hall and the masterplan for Canada Water Basin. Illustrated with photographs and plans, the book offers an inspirational survey and an invaluable record of the continued reinvigoration of this historic and forward-thinking district.
