A look at the present plight and the future shape of town and country: compiled and introduced by NICHOLAS TAYLOR Can We Afford to Build Cheaply?
The earlier buildings of the Welfare State, now a generation old, are in danger of falling into chronic decay. Our system of annual budgeting has forced local authorities to cut to the bone the cost of new houses and schools. The result may be not only a crippling burden of recurrent maintenance but also the encouragement of the vandalism which flourishes in decayed neighbourhoods. Speakers include:
EDWARD HOLLAMBY, Director of Development, London Borough of Lambeth: DR PETER STONE. building economist; and j. PARRY-LEWIS . Professor of the Economics of Planning at Manchester University.
