As ever, the development of the city's economic, political and cultural life can be read in the new buildings going up all over the capital. After the excitement and farce of London's millennium buildings (The London Eye, Peckham Library and the Tate Modern on the one hand; the Dome and the infamous swaying Thames footbridge on the other), our rulers have built themselves one of the world's most lavish office blocks; two new skyscrapers are nearing completion at Canary Wharfonce among the capital's most derided properties, now an astonishingly desirable address; industrial buildings are renovated to house new-media firms and the people who own or work in them; and occasionally funding is found for a school or public leisure facility. This fifth edition of London: A Guide to Recent Architecture brings the picture up to date. 150 b/w photographs.

As we look forward to leaving the twentieth century, the pace of architectural change in London has accelerated - a phenomenon reflected in this fourth edition of a book described by The Sunday Times as a 'publishing hit'. Revised and re-photographed throughout, with more than 30 new entries, this book provides a snapshot of London now, with a new wave of lottery-funded projects and the major infrastructure development of the Jubilee Line Extension designed by many of the UK's most exciting architects. And the Millennium Dome provides a controversial full stop to the century. Other projects featured for the first time in this guide range from the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Neasden to Future Systems' floating bridge in Docklands, and from the reconstructed Globe Theatre in Southwark to No.1 Poultry, London's post-modern flagship, the posthumously completed work of James Stirling.
