Simon Pitkeathley reveals the winning practice for the Camden Highline, who will help turn it into 'an amazing park in the sky'. The CEO of Camden Unlimited, the Camden Collective and the Camden Highline project, talks to Peter Murray about his role in London’s recovery and how we can stop central areas looking like 'Ghost Towns'.

We must make sure resources are in the heads of those who need it most. 

Simon points to the use of 'meanwhile' as a way of revitalising high streets but admits more conversation needs to be had.
