WANCH, you wanted to see pictures of the Aylesbury Estate...

The Heygate Estate is almost identical if I remember correctly, and just north of the Aylesbury, which is in the Walworth area.

***Manila-X*** · August 29th, 2005, 09:14 AM

I've seen several images of Heygate Estate. But The Aylesbury estate is larger. It it the largest housing project in London and the whole of Europe. But it's all good to show these images!

I originally thought it was when I type New York City + projects through Google and this came up. One of the things that threw me off was that it had a special lot for residents, which most housing projects usually have. Then again, looks can be decieving. Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village are almost next door to Waterside Plaza, though I am not sure if they are housing projects, which is why I didn't include them.

***Manila-X*** · September 5th, 2005, 06:52 AM

Lai Tak Tsuen in Hong Kong. This is one of the best looking public housing estate in Hong Kong because of it's cylindrical design

TalB · September 8th, 2005, 03:53 AM

Even Staten Island has some housing projects.

Tracey Towers is not Public housing, River Park is not public housing..but I'm aware that there is subsidized apts availible in the buildings, and Concourse Village isn't Public housing either

***Manila-X*** · September 8th, 2005, 08:30 AM

Tracey Towers is definitely not public housing. So is the Hilliard Homes in Chicago.

I think Tracey Towers used to be public housing or was originally built as a housing project.

Public housing in Mexico City
