I quite like this stuff, there seems to be a sense of respecting the individual dwellings, i.e. a block like Bradenham is not just an anoymous lump of brutalism, it is a place where people from all over the planet live out their lives in different ways.

The Ruinist still enjoys high-life living that can look down on the vacant land where Habington was - full of grasses, sandy soil, foxes, birds and local flytipping. Soon to join this dust memory - the Aylesbury itself, being the subject of 'regeneration' where (as is pointed out on Hatherly's blog) 'is social cleansing'.
