    Chrisp Street: 75 Years On | Know Your Neighbourhood | LFA 2026

    Can regeneration strengthen a community rather than replace it? Chrisp Street Market has been part of East London's story for generations. Chrisp Street in E14 is five minutes from Canary Wharf, named on the DLR, and about to turn 75. Built as part of the Festival of Britain in 1951 - one of the UK's first purpose-built mixed-use developments - it's a place with homes, a market, a listed clock tower, and a community that has stayed rooted here across generations. In this episode of Talking Place: Know Your Neighbourhood, host Tanisha Raffiuddin is joined by Georgia Sharpe from Telford Homes to explore what makes Chrisp Street so special, why authenticity matters in regeneration, and how communities can shape the future of the places they love. Together they discuss: •What makes Chrisp Street distinct in East London •The Festival of Britain legacy and Frederick Gibberd's original design •How diversity — ethnic, economic, generational — creates belonging •Community consultation and the future redevelopment vision •Why E14 was named the Sunday Times' No.1 postcode for 2026 •What regeneration gets right (and wrong) when it comes to community identity This episode is part of the Know Your Neighbourhood series, made in partnership with the London Festival of Architecture 2026 on the theme of Belonging. 🗓️ LFA Event at Chrisp Street: 27th June 2026.

    Cody Dock: 4,000 Volunteers, One Vision | Know Your Neighbourhood | LFA 2026

    Host Tanisha Raffiuddin visits Cody Dock in East London and speaks with Simon Myers and Bella Quirin from Cody Dock about what belonging looks like when it is built on collective ownership. This episode is part of the Know Your Neighbourhood series, produced in partnership with the London Festival of Architecture 2026. The theme is Belonging.  Cody Dock sits on the River Lee in East London - on the Greenwich Meridian Line, north of the O2. It has a rolling bridge that is the first of its kind in the world, a reed bed that survived the ice age, and an ecology that includes kingfishers, the occasional seal, and a snail that has been here since before the ice age. It is also, somewhat unusually for this part of London, a community space that 4,000 people a year help build with their own hands. Cody Dock is part of the wider Leamouth and Canning Town neighbourhood, a part of East London regenerating at pace but still - as Simon notes - disconnected in ways that developers, planners, and local authorities need to urgently address. In this episode, you will discover: •       What Cody Dock is and why people are surprised when they arrive •       Collective ownership as the foundation of belonging •       4,000 volunteers a year - and 400 names carved into a 12-tonne rolling bridge •       The 999-year lease and thinking beyond short-term regeneration •       The historic lifeboat and its role in the new heritage centre •       Ecology: kingfishers, seals, the German hairy snail, and the dream of oysters back in the Lea •       What the River Lea has been, and what it could become •       Connectivity as the missing piece in East London's regeneration Guests: Simon Myers and  Bella Quirin, Cody Dock.  Host: Tanisha Raffiuddin, Creative Director, Concept Culture.

    City of London: The Neighbourhood of Contrast | Know Your Neighbourhood | LFA2026

    In this episode of Know Your Neighbourhood - produced in partnership with the London Festival of Architecture 2026 - host Tanisha Raffiuddin travels to the City of London, the Square Mile, to meet Eliza Grosvenor of NLA at The London Centre. Together they explore this year's LFA2026 theme of Belonging through one of London's most contradictory neighbourhoods: a place with 2,000 years of Roman history sitting beside some of the capital's newest buildings, where the Great Fire of London destroyed 80% of the city, and where the long-standing perception of “bankers only” is being quietly rewritten by community organisations, free cultural programming, and a new wave of public realm projects. In this episode you will discover: •        Why the City of London is best understood as a “neighbourhood of contrast” •        The real story of the Great Fire of London - and why it shaped the City's winding streets •        Why Christopher Wren's rebuilding plan never happened, and what we got instead •        The myth that the City is “only for bankers” - and what's actually changing •        LFA2026 in the City of London: the Lecture series, the LEGO Challenge, and open livery halls •        A bench, a scale model, and what “belonging” really looks like •        Accessibility and disability justice in a 2,000-year-old neighbourhood •        Know Your Neighbourhood rapid-fire round: coffee, cocktails, views and a curry under £6 Guest Eliza Grosvenor, NLA (New London Architecture) Chapters •        00:00 — Welcome to Know Your Neighbourhood •        02:28 — The City of London: a neighbourhood of contrast •        03:29 — Inside the Square Mile •        04:26 — What does belonging mean here? •        08:13 — LFA2026: what's on in the City of London •        10:03 — The Great Fire that destroyed 80% of London •        11:59 — Busting the “bankers only” myth •        13:15 — The bench that says it all •        18:20 — What the City risks losing •        20:13 — If Eliza could change one thing in this neighbourhood it would be... •        21:47 — Know Your Neighbourhood - rapid fire round Support the show To learn more about host Tanisha Raffiuddin: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanisharaffiuddin/ Website: www.conceptculture.co Instagram: @tanisha.rr To learn more about Talking Place: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/talking-place-podcast Website - https://www.conceptculture.co/talking-place-podcast Instagram: @talkingplacepodcast Bluesky: @talkingplace TikTok: @talkingplacepodcast To learn more about Concept Culture: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/concept-culture-uk Website - https://www.conceptculture.co Sign Up to Our Newsletter — https://mailchi.mp/conceptculture/newslettersignup

    E29: Bradford City of Culture: The Year That Changed Everything and What Comes Next

    E28: Be More Bradford: What Happens When a City Designs for Health

    85% of our health is determined by non-clinical factors. So why does the built environment remain an afterthought in most public health conversations?  In this episode of Talking Place, recorded live at the Bradford Showcase at UKREiiF 2026, Tanisha sits down with three people who are making the evidence-based case for healthier cities - and delivering it. Professor Rosie McEachan (Director, Born in Bradford) shares landmark data from one of Europe's largest longitudinal health studies - including the finding that one in three children's asthma cases in Bradford are directly attributable to traffic-related air pollution. Abigail Scott Paul (Global Head of Humanise Campaign, Heatherwick Studio) makes the neuroscience case for why bland buildings are a public health emergency. James Almond (Managing Director, P+HS Architects) brings the delivery reality - including a £65m mental health hospital in Bradford that is already changing how an NHS trust operates. Together, they tackle the big structural question: where is the power sitting that is preventing the change that needs to happen?

In this episode of Talking Place, host Tanisha Raffiuddin visits Alexandra Palace and Wood Green as part of London Festival of Architecture's Know Your Neighbourhood series exploring the theme of belonging. Joined by Louise Johnson from the Alexandra Park and Palace Charitable Trust, the conversation explores why ‘Ally Pally’ continues to hold such a special place in the hearts of Londoners more than 150 years after it first opened its doors. From its role as the birthplace of television to the memories created through concerts, family traditions and everyday walks in the park, Alexandra Palace reveals how places become part of our personal and collective identities. The episode also uncovers the hidden creative energy of Wood Green, from its cultural quarter to its remarkable concentration of music recording studios, highlighting a side of the neighbourhood that many visitors may not be aware of. Together, they discuss stewardship, heritage, creativity, public space and the responsibility of caring for places that generations of people call their own. Topics covered: • The story behind London's People's Palace  • Why belonging is built through shared memories  • Alexandra Palace's role in broadcasting history  • Hidden creative communities in Wood Green  • Heritage, sustainability and stewardship  • The importance of neighbourhood identity in London Plus, the rapid-fire round: best coffee, best view, the walk only locals know, and what you don't really understand about this neighbourhood until you've watched the sunset from the south terrace.

    Jun 2

    E27: Shaping Bradford: Heritage, Housing, and the Hard Yards of Regeneration

    Bradford is one of the UK's most talked-about regeneration stories and for good reason. With a demographic dividend, a stunning heritage canvas, and one of the boldest city centre transformation programmes in the country underway, Bradford is doing something different.  In this episode, recorded live at the Bradford Showcase at UKREiiF 2026 in Leeds, I sat down with three people right at the heart of making Bradford's next chapter happen. David Shepherd, Strategic Director for Growth at Bradford Council, the person responsible for the blueprint that's driving the city forward. Lisa Gledhill, Managing Director of National Partnerships at Muse and a Director of the English Cities Fund, the development partner behind Bradford City Village. And Niall Bourke, Associate Director at Arup, who's been watching Bradford City Centre transform over two decades of work on the ground.  We talk about what it means to make a market in a city at marginal viability, the art and hard work of public-private partnership, custodianship of heritage, of community, of momentum, and what it really takes to shape a city that works for everyone who lives in it.  Topics covered:  What Bradford is and why it's been underestimated The city's demographic dividend and what it means for economic growth What it means to be a Core City beyond the headline The Southern Gateway: 146 hectares and a chance to stitch communities back together Bradford City Village: transforming the old retail heart into 1,000 homes The viability challenge: Why Bradford is "making a market" What the Mirror Pool moment revealed about pent-up demand for great public space The Born in Bradford longitudinal study and how data is shaping housing and public realm decisions What makes a public-private partnership work: aligned values, shared objectives, and trust Final thoughts: vision, relentless drive, grit, determination, and humility About Our Guests  David Shepherd  Strategic Director for Growth at Bradford Council, where he leads the blueprint for delivering economic growth and built environment improvements across the district. A lifelong Bradfordian, David has spent the last three and a half years driving some of the city's most significant regeneration investment, from the pedestrianisation of the city centre to the Southern Gateway masterplan.  Lisa Gledhill  Managing Director of National Partnerships at Muse and a Director of the English Cities Fund (ECF), the development partner behind Bradford City Village. A Bradfordian by upbringing who built her career in London, Lisa brings over 25 years of experience in complex urban regeneration partnerships.  Niall Bourke  Associate Director at Arup, a global built environment consultancy. Based in Leeds, Niall has worked closely with Bradford Council and its partners for over two decades, including on Bradford City Park, one of the city's first major public realm investments.  Join the Conversation  Bradford is making a market, but what does it take to back a city before the market does?  Share your thoughts with us on Instagram or LinkedIn @TalkingPlacePodcast using #TalkingPlacePodcast  Links & Mentions  Bradford City Village - https://www.bradfordcityvillage.co.uk Invest in Bradford - https://www.investinbradford.com/showcasing-bradford/showcasing-bradford/  Muse Developments - https://www.muse.co.uk English Cities Fund (ECF) - https://www.englishcitiesfund.co.uk Arup - https://www.arup.com Bradford Council - https://www.bradford.gov.uk Born in Bradford - https://borninbradford.nhs.uk West Yorkshire Combined Authority - https://www.westyorks-ca.gov.uk UKREiiF 2026 - https://www.ukreiif.com Northern Powerhouse Rail Norfolk Gardens, Bradford Bradford City Park Airedale New Build Hospital Support the show To learn more about host Tanisha Raffiuddin: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanisharaffiuddin/ Website: www.conceptculture.co Instagram: @tanisha.rr To learn more about Talking Place: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/talking-place-podcast Website - https://www.conceptculture.co/talking-place-podcast Instagram: @talkingplacepodcast Bluesky: @talkingplace TikTok: @talkingplacepodcast To learn more about Concept Culture: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/concept-culture-uk Website - https://www.conceptculture.co Sign Up to Our Newsletter — https://mailchi.mp/conceptculture/newslettersignup
