Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1884 by H.H. Bridgman, an architect, and surveyor, presents a proposal for street realignment and reconstruction in the heart of London. It begins by demonstrating the pressing need for such improvements, citing figures that show a dramatic increase in both vehicular and pedestrian traffic over the previous decades. The author suggests various solutions, including widening existing thoroughfares and constructing new streets, to alleviate congestion and improve traffic flow. The book also considers the broader context of street improvements in London, discussing the work of the Metropolitan Board of Works and the Corporation of the City of London. It examines the impact of new development, railway stations, and the growing population on the city's infrastructure and proposes several ambitious new projects, such as a new bridge at the Tower of London. Bridgman's writing highlights the importance of comprehensive planning and foresight in addressing the challenges of urbanization and offers valuable insights into the history of urban planning in London.
