Who decides how London gets built?

Part two of our conversation with Jenna Goldberg from London Communications Agency

In our first conversation with Jenna Goldberg from London Communications Agency we talked about who actually runs London and why that’s such a complicated question to answer.

Who actually runs London (and why is it so complicated)?

In this second part we dig into a bit more about the processes and politics that surround London’s shifting ‘built environment’. It’s a continuous and controversial conversation in London (Tottenham’s ‘Latin Village’ campaign and the Hondo Tower battle in Brixton are just two recent examples) so we wanted to speak to Jenna about how the relationships between the public, property developers and local councils have shifted over recent years, what the rules are governing who can build what, and what ‘good’ change looks like.
