How do tall buildings integrate into the urban fabric and historical heritage?

Our latest Tall Buildings report, 'London’s Growing Up', explores a decade of building tall in London, highlighting the significant transformation and future impact of tall buildings on the city's landscape. However, these questions aren't limited to London, as other UK cities are also debating the impact of tall buildings. In Manchester, tall buildings are rising all over the city, exemplified recently by a planning application for Europe's tallest residential building. How do tall buildings fit into historical heritage? And what is their impact on city skylines and urban fabric?

 

The webinar discusses city-wide strategies, the typology and design of these buildings and the role they play in the urban fabric and their local environments ground floor.

This event formed a part of the NLA City Dialogues programme, which brings together speakers and audiences to foster cross-city dialogue and learning between cities.
