Established under the London View Management Framework, these strategically protected viewing corridors play a crucial role in shaping the capital's skyline, preserving iconic sight lines to landmarks such as St Paul's Cathedral, the Palace of Westminster, and the Tower of London from designated vantage points across the city.
 
The session will examine the planning policies, visual assessment techniques, and design considerations that developers, architects, and planners must navigate when proposing buildings within or near these protected views.
 
Whether you are involved in planning, development, architecture, urban design, or simply have an interest in how London's cityscape is managed, this event will provide valuable insights into the complex relationship between development, heritage, and the preservation of some of the capital's most treasured views.
