Having only now found time to read the 21 May issue of Building, and sat here in my Antwerp office, I feel compelled to point out that the man “living the high life” up an aerial mast in Antwerp is in Belgium and not Holland as your caption states!

On the same page Peter Cobrin expounds a realistic prediction that our industry is, understandably, loath to recognise.

Our obsession with celebrity and iconism must be refocused upon managing our existing estate, to support the delivery of policy and improvement in all aspects of social and civic development.
