UNIVERSITY OWNED LAND Deal with both golden square and university owned land How would the city be a better place by doing all of this? Reinforce all the critical things They will remember best diagram and best map and how you finish!!! If the city had the courage……had the capacity to implement… What we would have? a large number of people living in better developments Provided more affordable energy efficient housing Setting a new bench mark in residential and community development Finish on a aspirational note It would be a shame if we didn’t do it Name and shame doing it generically….move beyond the blandness Do u really want to make more of the same mistakes Golden square will become more disjointed and deteriorate. Rejuvenate it but build on the historical character Osborne is creating an identity out of nothing
