South Central, London

An addendum to yesterdays NLA post. If you go to the website (or indeed the exhibition) , click on the Changing Face Of London exhibit. Enter, then follow the link to list projects, and finally click on South Central. You get this frank nonsense:

“London South Central is the new ‘brand’ for the South Bank area designed to encourage investment south side of the River Thames from Vauxhall Bridge to Tower Bridge.”

And in what way is renaming a clearly named and well defined area like the South Bank with a new name which has connotation of the LA riots going to help bring in investment. It might be a good exhibit, but its good to see that stupidity still reigns supreme.
