PENINSULA HISTORY
THROUGHOUT HISTORY, GREENWICH PENINSULA HAS CHANGED COUNTLESS TIMES IN TERMS OF PROGRAM, USAGE, HABITABILITY AND TRANSPORTATION. IT IS CERTAINLY ONE OF THE MOST DEVELOPED AND REDEVELOPED, MAN MADE LAND MASSES IN LONDON. CONSTANT REDEVELOPMENT IMPLIES THAT IT HAS NOT JUST BEEN IMPROVED BUT INDEED HAS FAILED THROUGH HISTORY AND HAS YET TO CREATE A LASTING IMAGE.
THE PENINSULA IS A CLEAN SLATE THAT I PROPOSE TO RE-SCULPT FOR THE LAST TIME, CREATING A LASTING URBAN MODEL AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT SHOULD BE WORLD WIDE. THE URBAN PROPOSAL WILL EXPLOIT THE NATURE OF THE ‘CLEAN SLATE’ BUT WITH REGARDS TO THE SHORT AND LONG TERM FUTURES OPPOSED TO THE APPARENT DEVELOPMENT OF THE ‘PRESENT TO NEAR FUTURE’.
