This week, Shiv Malik, the man behind the proposals for ‘Forest City 1’, takes your questions. He’s a former investigative journalist turned campaigner: instead of writing another book about Britain’s housing crisis, he’s trying to build his way out of it. Forest City is his ambitious pitch for Britain’s first new city in more than 50 years: a million-person settlement east of Cambridge, with around 400,000 homes, new rail links and thousands of acres of new woodland. We hear Shiv talk about his own background and credentials, whether ‘Forest City’ is actually affordable, and if people can shift their mindset in favour of a new kind of city living. Plus, what will Shiv’s “beautiful” new homes actually look like?
