Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The Big Smoke. The Big Apple. Bright lights and skylines set the scene for a housing tale of two cities: London and New York. Growing up in tandem and maturing as urban democracies during the 19th and 20th centuries, London and New York have both influenced the shape and form of cities around the world. There is much that connects the two: global ambitions, post-industrial economies and international demographics. As both cities grapple with a housing crisis, fuelled by escalating prices, ageing stock and a scarcity of genuinely affordable homes, widespread homelessness is all too visible on the streets. The two metropolises are united by a pressing need to address urban housing provision and social equity. Offering a practical guide to the past, present and future of housing, Dual Cities explores social and affordable housing models in London and New York. Illustrated case studies showcase best practice in parallel, demonstrating how the cities have inspired and learnt from each other.
