Sheffield Flats: From High Rise to Eyesore
Peter Tuffrey
Sheffield Council planned slum clearance and a radical scheme for flats. Inspired by Le Corbusier's Unite d'Habitation. Construction began in 1957 and Park Hill was officially opened in 1961. Although initially popular and successful, over time the estate was nicknamed 'San Quentin' and the largest Hyde Park block was demolished in the 1990s.
