Over the past year, Farrer & Co has hosted a series of events for the placemaking sector which brought together developers, landowners, funders, architects and other industry leaders to discuss the future of development, collaboration and community.
In Estates Gazette, Mark Gauguier and Christina Tennant explore the key takeaways, examining why design, longevity and stewardship – alongside community engagement and sustainability – are considered cornerstones of successful placemaking, and how government support on infrastructure, planning reform and partnerships could help unlock delivery.
As the Government strives to meet its ambitious housing targets and spur economic growth, placemaking and legacy developments are facilitating the delivery of much needed, high-quality housing and mixed use and commercial developments.
