Dual Cities Social Housing in London & 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, homelessness and inequality have become entrenched. 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. Complemented by a set of thoughtful essays and interviews with experts from both sides of the Atlantic, the book demystifies current policy, delivery mechanisms and ways of working, providing valuable lessons in creating better and more resilient cities through improved housing. Featuring: Contextual case studies, including: Alton East West, Blackfriars, Becontree and Dujardin Mews in London, and East River Houses, Riverbend City, Sunnyside and Williamsburg in New York. 20 contemporary case studies from New York and London, fully illustrated with photographs, drawings and plans. Featured projects by: Adam Khan Architects, Al-Jawad Pike, Archio, Bernheimer Architects, FXCollaborative, Karakusevic Carson Architects, Mae, Magnussen Architecture and Planning, Mary Duggan Architects and Shakespeare Gordon Studio. Expert contributors include: Abigail Batchelor, John Boughton, Patrice Derrington, Alex Ely, Moses Gates, Karen Kubey, Matthew Lasner, Brian Loughlin, David Madden and Kath Scanlon.
