By City Architecture Forum
June 2020

Originally designed in 1956 as part of the Golden Lane Estate by Chamberlin Powell and Bon for the City of London Corporation, this iconic Grade II Listed Building was a hugely influential post-war housing development, with unusual views into The Barbican, their best known work. John Robertson (John Robertson Architects) explores the sympathetic refurbishment of one of the City's exemplary residential developments which took extensive consultation with leaseholders and tenants, Historic England, The 20th Century Society and the City Planners.
