LSE Cities has just published a new report called, [_Living in a denser London: How residents see their homes_](http://www.lse.ac.uk/cities/Assets/Documents/2020-LSE-Density-Report-digital.pdf?mc_cid=2afaab842d&mc_eid=96d8025030). The goal of the research project was to better understand how modern housing projects are working (or not working) for Londoners. And so they connected with over 500 residents from 14 completed housing projects and got their feedback on everything from built form to community engagement. Most of the housing projects were completed in the last ten years, but they also surveyed projects from 1980, 1947, and 1902. If you don't feel like going through the full report, there is also [this website](http://www.lse.ac.uk/lse-cities-density-homes?mc_cid=2afaab842d&mc_eid=96d8025030) and [this short film](https://vimeo.com/341544244/5cceacc56a).
