Right before his exit as premier, Dan Andrews announced plans that the Victorian Government would demolish and redevelop 44 public housing towers across Naarm/Melbourne – a move promoted as a policy to address the affordable housing shortage.

Rory Hyde is an Associate Professor in Architecture, and a co-host of recently returned Triple R talks show The Architects. He joins guest host Olso Davis to discuss alternative arguments to the demolition of these buildings, after the proposed redesign for the Carlton public housing towers were released.
