Łukasz Stanek@StanekLukasz·
Huge congratulations to @davemnt! Based on extensive archival research and interviews, his PhD thesis rewrites the history of urban regeneration in Britain, 1960s-80s, combining architectural and planning history in new ways. What a journey it has been, and much more to come!
David Mountain@davemnt

Yesterday I passed my PhD viva with minor corrections! Chuffed. Thank you so much @StanekLukasz and @WardyKG1969 for your supervision over 5 years, and to Nick Phelps and @lcszacka for reading and examining!

@michaellondonsf Not yet. I should do that. I'll write to you once I've done the corrections. Your recordings were invaluable!

The contents page of the copy of Colin Ward's 1973 volume 'Vandalism' on archive.org seems to have been vandalised by a small child😁
