RE Cumbernauld Town Centre

With regards to Architecture having the power to drive social change, community behaviors and improve day to day quality of life, the most important opinions on what should happen in and around our site are from the local people who the community belongs to.

Robin Hood Gardens

Looking at failed historical projects such as Cumbernauld and Robin Hood gardens, in which the inhabitants themselves suffer, what kind of questions do you think we should be asking the locals?

How far do you live from here?
How long have you lived or worked here?
Do you feel a sense of community in the area and why/why not?
What are the best and worst aspects with regards to community in the area?
Are there any positive aspects of the area that you feel have died out?
Which other parts of the city do you feel most and least connected to?
How do you feel the recent developments in the city centre have affected your immediate community?
How would you like to see money spent to improve this community?
