Tall buildings: the next decade

Talk

Tuesday 09 July 2024
08:30 - 09:30

Hayes Davidson

Following the launch of our latest report, this event questions what the future of tall buildings will look like in the coming years.

Tall buildings can no longer be fortresses they were once. They need to provide mixed use, greater amenities, foster community, outside space and reductions in their carbon footprint.

What might happen in the next 10 years of building tall in London? How will policies, markets and public’s perception impact this typology?
