I don't understand the sentiment.... can you explain?
Ok there are far too many flats around the place, but if the factory is no longer used for "factory things" is it better to leave it crumbling or build houses to house people....
I would rather them convert a derelict factory to save it from vandals than convert the countryside that surrounds my house.
Plus the more derelict factories the convert = greater supply of housing = meeting high demand for housing = drops in price.
Alternatively make it into a factory again. And stop people beliveing that houses/flats are investements rather than places to live.
If as it looks like, financial services as an industry are going down the toilet - where is the UK going to get it's wealth from? We don't make anything anymore.0
