EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a model of the High Paddington Scheme, displayed in the prestigious Royal Society of Arts Library. The scheme, presented by Sergei Kadleigh A. R. I. B. A. , showcases an innovative approach to urban redevelopment by demonstrating how land can be utilized for multiple purposes. In this case, it envisions transforming the site of Paddington Goods Yard in London into a thriving community capable of accommodating 8,000 people with all necessary amenities. The model depicted in the photograph highlights the entrance to the Goods Yard and its surrounding built-up area. Tower blocks and apartment buildings rise majestically from the ground, symbolizing modern high-rise living solutions for those seeking housing and shelter. This thought-provoking image was captured on March 11th, 1953. The photograph raises important questions about housing construction and planning methods as well as living conditions during that era. It serves as a reminder that architecture has always played a vital role in addressing societal needs such as homelessness and accommodation shortages. While this print offers insight into historical reconstruction efforts and architectural concepts, it is crucial to note that commercial use should not be mentioned when discussing this particular image provided by TopFoto.
