Croydon Documentary. Part 1 - The High-rise and Fall

Love it or loathe it, Croydon is a remarkable place. The result of radical architectural and urban experiments in the 1960s, it is a strange, challenging and unique piece of city.

In the first of a two-part documentary from the Architecture Foundation, Phineas Harper investigates Croydon's history, piecing together a story of big visions with a whiff of corruption.

This documentary is made possible thanks to the generous support of Hawkins\Brown, an architecture firm actively engaged in improving the future of Croydon.
