The King’s Cross scheme is one of the largest and most complex developments taking place in Britain today.

Through documenting this seminal case-study, this book sheds light on the complex process through which public realm development proposals are planned and approved: through complex negotiation and deal making, involving many different stakeholders.

Unique, insider’s account: draws on first-hand interviews and full access to previously confidential material from primary sources. Comprehensive look at urban planning relevant to both students and practitioners. Currently very little available on the process through which public realm schemes are planned and approved. Kings Cross is now a standing event in the teaching calendars of many planning schools. Huge international market: KX visitor centre receives delegations on study tours from Japan, Taiwan, China, USA, India, Korea, Australia, Malaysia, UAE, Russia, South Africa, Mexico and most the EU.
