#2I've said it before, the 99percentinvisible podcast should be right up the alley of the hacker news crowd.

Whilst in some ways I really hate the planning/listing laws in the UK, it does at least leave some very interesting buildings around. You can be walking down a London city-centre street, past one big blocky modern building after another and then suddenly encounter a 400+ year old Tudor inn. Absolutely fantastic when you see them; it's one of the main reasons I like walking rather than taking the underground.

Nice balloons. Won't quite lift the house up though.

#10I think the house does a wonderful job of breaking up the monotony of the streetscape.
It used to break up the landscape, but in its current dilapidated state it's a bit of an eye-sore, even compared to the rest of the Ballard Blocks which are far from being architectural marvels.
Hopefully someone will fix it up, because as it is, it is less a memoir of a woman with a strong will than a monument to the futility of resisting change.
