Here it goes
Spent the weekend in London before I fly out this evening to Mumbai. Was struck by the proliferation of large building complexes, actually making up the fabric of the city in many areas around the city centre - it's original grain having been unrecognisably altered. One way of viewing London then would be as an accretion of monuments and monumental buildings into an extremely dense pattern, with superblocks adjutting superblocks. This and variations on it is the kind of thing I hope to document in more detail in other cities (I guess I'll just have to come back to study London some other time).
