London as it might have been book

[uk 75]

Just bought this slim well illustrated and researched book which gives glimpses of how London might have looked if various mainly post WW2 schemes had been built.

It gives some great backdrops for lovers of alternate history. Most are probably best left there but fun to use.

This looks like a fascinating read! London has so many wild unbuilt post-WW2 concepts, from the Ringways network to crazy brutalist redevelopments. Does the book cover any of the futuristic monorail or airport proposals from that era?

The illustrations must make these alternative visions of London especially interesting. Were there any plans that you personally wished had been built?
