Outline planning permission has ben given for a controversial development framework for Leith Docks, the largest planning application in Edinburgh's history. The framework, designed by RMJM for Forth Ports, will regenerate the area as part of the city's long term vision to transform Edinburgh's waterfront into a vibrant sustainable community and an internationally renowned leisure destination

Education is regarded as one key element in a major programme of regeneration which has the aim of reviving the economy of the seaside town of Hastings, East Sussex, along with its neighbour Bexhill. A new style 'multi-versity' now has over 700 students, while a new further education college is under construction

Many new homes are planned in areas of flood risk, especially those in the Thames Gateway. Every new development exacerbates long-term problems of flood risk and water shortage. LIfE (long-term initiatives for flood risk environment) provides integrated master-planning, architecture and environmental solutions to areas at risk.

Barking Central is designed by Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, originally for Urban Catalyst - now for Redrow, to create 200 homes and a lifelong learning centre on the site of an original library. The project sits adjacent to the existing town hall and includes the creation of a new civic square

Feilden Clegg Bradley Architects won the competition to design a sustainable living quarter in London's New Cross Gate in February 2006.

Bristol's tallest-ever building, an environmentally-friendly 40-storey tower development, could become the spectacular symbol of urban regeneration in the St Paul’s area of the city under new proposals being drawn up by RPS.

The EDAW Masterplan was announced as the winner of the International Design Competition back in November 1996. Supplementary Planning Guidance was then formally adopted to underpin the masterplan and to give a spatial definition and statutory basis to the vision, which was completed years later

The reconstruction programme for Manchester’s City Centre was guided by a strong vision of the kind of place local people would like to see emerge from the devastation caused by the bomb. That vision embodied in the masterplan builds strongly upon the aims and objectives of the ‘City Pride’ Prospectus and other strategic priorities of the City

Bristol is growing; by 2026 there are likely to be 30,000 more people living in the city. In the area surrounding Bristol (the former county of Avon), the population will increase by some 100,000. As a result of changes to the planning system in 2004, work has already begun on the Bristol Development Framework, which will guide the significant growth that will be occurring in Bristol over the next 20 years
