WikiProject Social Housing?[edit]

Why is this in the WikiProject Social Housing? The Barbican is not and never was social housing and does not belong there. Seeing as the WikiProject's aim is 'To improve and increase the number of articles about social housing projects in the United Kingdom' it seems particularly inappropriate and misleading. Would somebody please remove it or instruct me as to how I can do this myself? Haltendehand (talk) 21:05, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled[edit]

The articles on the three towers really dont add anything and just duplicate information. I think we should get rid of them. Justinc 12:22, 16 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Done! Kbthompson 17:39, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note about listing[edit]

The estate was Grade II* listed but can't remember when. We should note this with x-references to english heritage.

Grade II, I think, though there are plans up upgrade it. 86.0.203.120 11:43, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I put it in GII category, when I added the Golden Lane link. (It was correct in early Oct). It could be explicitly stated in article. When I lived there, some aspects of the interior were listed, mainly the kitchens and the extraordinary sliding windows. Some people had subverted the listing by glazing their balcony.
