The Linear City with Cany Ash

London Festival of Architecture Sky Ride Podcasts

Cany Ash of Ash Sakula Architects leads this tour of recent developments hugging viaducts, canals & roads. The ride starts under the Green Bridge in Mile End Park, just off the Mile End Road. Travelling east along the canal adjacent to Victoria Park, the ride comes to Fish Island, to drop in on a handful of warehouse spaces used for work, living, arts and play including the Stour Space and The Hive. The last leg of the ride is back through Victoria Park and London Fields to the Kingsland Road to view SoDa Studios by Thinkingspace Ltd. Andrea Miorin was one of the architects working on the developments which occupies a sliver of land between the busy road and a railway line.
