Traces the development of the Barbican Estate in London, from pre-war planning to present day. Built on the largest blitzed site in London, it was conceived as a new Belgravia to bring the professional classes back to the heart of the city. With penthouses and tower apartments, it provided one of the earliest prototypes for loft living in England.
