Saxton Phase II | Lance Routh - 0 views

  • Social housing is not delivered within the development boundary as this is provided elsewhere on the estate. Prior to commencement of the project in January 2007, the two blocks had stood empty for years and were in poor condition. This inevitably led to problems as the derelict buildings became a magnet for anti-social activity which disrupted the lives of the residents of Saxton Gardens and beyond.

Red Apple Apartment Building / Aedes Studio - 0 views

  •  
    The surrounding neighborhood consists mostly of apartment blocks that date back from the 70's. The buildings are large with enough space in-between and plenty of greenery. Because the whole area is built in relatively short period of time and not very long ago, it lacks the typical historic layers of the city center.
