London’s Arcadia project provides a unique opportunity for the events of the past 500 years to come full circle. It is a true renaissance of London’s Arcadia to honour the vision of those who saved the view century ago and it provides a framework to enhance and understand the Thames Landscape for the next 100 years. The view has become the spiritual heart of London’s Arcadia project.
