As part of the Guardian's series on the Housing Crisis, a letter from URBED founding director Nicholas Falk, was published on Thursday 5th May. You can see Nicholas' full letter via the link on the right. 

In it he suggests that the threat to our countryside from new housing is made worse by a failure to concentrate new development around key transport nodes. Echoing the sentiments of our Wolfson prize winning essay, Nicholas calls for a commission to allocate the land for new garden cities, rather than relying on ad hoc exceptions.
