The Independent: "Richard Rogers: 'Why more money should be spent on affordable homes'"


Link to web site

"If Richard Rogers ran the City, rather than just designed some of its iconic buildings, the grotesque financial screw-ups of recent years might have been avoided.

"Putting an architect aged 80 in charge of Britain’s commercial heart and dollar-fixated soul, is of course never going to happen. 

"But listening to the man who gave the Square Mile the Lloyd’s building in 1986 and who next year will deliver its new Leadenhall Street neighbour in the shape of the 'Cheesegrater', you detect an inner-politician whose idealism could well have survived the Westminster wrecking-ball."
