Heritage-led regeneration of Woolwich part 1 - walking tour
In our two-part podcast, we take the Woolwich ferry to find out how a major regeneration project is balancing community identity, housing viability and historic preservation.
Woolwich is being transformed through the heritage-led regeneration (https://www.royalgreenwich.gov.uk/info/200200/regeneration/142/woolwich_regeneration) of the high street and the historic Royal Arsenal site.
The Royal Borough of Greenwich has established a long-term investment partnership with Berkeley Homes to deliver housing, public realm and new cultural attractions to bring people to Woolwich.
To find out more about this landmark regeneration project, Future of London alumni Bhavna Brooker visited Woolwich to record a two-part podcast. In the first part, she is given guided tour of the area and people involved in the regeneration partnership who bring the story alive.

Party On? The night-time economy and London's post-pandemic recovery
When the pandemic lockdown shut London's night-time economy overnight, the city became a ghost town. This highlighted starkly the importance of night-time economy to the city, making the Mayor's goal of a 24-hour city an important part of the post-pandemic recovery.
In this City Bites podcast, we hear from two urban practitioners who share their insights on the importance of the night-time economy to London's recovery and its long-term economic success. For a start, it's not just about pubs and clubs.
Laetitia Lucy is a social scientist working in the Integrated City Planning team at Arup with colleagues from economics, urban design, landscape architecture and planning disciplines.
Mark Inger is a senior policy officer working on night-time enterprise zones ay the Greater London Authority.
Bhavna Brooker, spatial planning programme lead at Transport for London, chaired the discussion.
