Southwark Councils planning committee approved the plans yesterday (5 March) for developer Helical and Transport for Londons (TfLs) property company, Places for London.Submitted in September, AHMMs scheme features a part-nine and part-15-storey building providing affordable homes and student accommodation.It includes 44 affordable units in the shorter block and 429 student bedrooms in the taller building, with retail or caf use on the ground floor facing Blackfriars Road and the Cut.AdvertisementAHMM's student development is two storeys shorter than the 26,500m2 office-led scheme that won planning consent in 2021 but went undelivered. That 17-storey proposal was also backed by Helical and TfL, which retained the practice on the project to rework the scheme last year.Like the 2021 plans, the scheme retains the existing Southwark station entrance, designed in 1999 by MacCormac Jamieson Prichard for the Jubilee Line extension.Historic England has confirmed to the AJ that it has completed its assessment of a listing for the station, which will be sent to the Department of Culture, Media and Sport for a final decision. The governments heritage watchdog rejected the ticket hall for statutory listing in 2017. Source:Peter Durant via AJ Buildings LibrarySouthwark Underground Station by MJP Architects (1999)AHMM said in the latest planning documents that the new development would require the station to remain operational, therefore no major changes are involved.Campaigners had raised concerns as early as 2017 about AHMMs early feasibility proposals for a 30-storey building, which would require stronger foundations possibly affecting Richard MacCormacs station design.AdvertisementUnder the previous scheme, Bell Phillips would have delivered new homes on the site of the now-demolished Styles House. However, the AJ reported in December 2023 that, despite consent and clearance work, the scheme had been either paused, delayed or cancelled by Southwark Council.AHMM will instead deliver the affordable units on the same site as the above-station development.AHMM director Philip Turner said: The Southwark over-station development will be a significant new local landmark at a busy junction. Led by our clients Helical and Places for London, and working closely with Heyne Tillett Steel, our design seeks to make the most of this long-standing opportunity site while addressing the complexities of its location above the tube station. Source:Hayes DavidsonAHMM's 2021 consented design for an office on Southwark station, with the white outline of a residential tower by Bell Phillips ArchitectsThis project will deliver student housing, retail space, and public realm improvements, in addition to a significant amount of affordable housing for the local community.Places for London says there are 93,700 purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) bedrooms in Greater London, meaning there are two-and-a-half times as many students as PBSA beds.News of a redesign on the above-station development first appeared last summer, when a a report to TfLs land and property committee said project backers had recommended redesigning the scheme as a mixed-use PBSA and affordable housing scheme, rather than the office block.A project timeline has not yet been given.

The practice won permission in mid-2023 to demolish the 18-storey, 1950s-built Albert Bridge House and replace it with a cascading 45-storey development featuring 367-home build-to-rent tower and 32,500m of workspace.Now the architect, together with project backer Oval, has come back with redrawn plans which include a family of three octagonal buildings the tallest of which is now 49 storeys (156m).The reworked scheme, which went out to public consultation this week, has almost double the number of homes, providing 800 flats within the main tower and a neighbouring 37-storey block.AdvertisementMeanwhile, the office space, housed within a 17-storey tower, has been trimmed to 23,200m.Developer Oval told Manchester City Council last year that it was reviewing its consented scheme on viability grounds. It says the refreshed designs respond to market needs.The project is earmarked for a 0.9ha plot next to Santiago Calatravas Trinity Bridge, and also includes a council-owned car park.Studio Egret West's redesigned proposal to replace the 1950s Albert Bridge House (as released March 2025) - sketch as viewed from The LowryThe Twentieth Century Society and the Manchester Modernist Society were among those to oppose the demolition of the 1958 Albert Bridge House before the scheme was given planning consent in 2023, citing it as an example of lost heritage.Oval had said that, while it was committed to renovating and retrofitting old buildings, Albert Bridge House did not offer the potential for successful renovation. Its original features had been lost during previous renovations, it added.AdvertisementThe Twentieth Century Society objected to the plans, claiming the total loss of the Modernist buildings would constitute substantial and unjustified harm in both architectural heritage and environmental terms.However, the purpose-built tax office, which the developer claims was not designed with long-term sustainability in mind and does not meet modern office occupier requirements, will not be retained in the latest designs.Unveiling the all-new vision, the team said it had introduced a greater residential offering, expanded the public realm, and optimised the scheme to enhance connectivity, placemaking, and sustainability.The two residential towers will feature a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments, as well as co-working spaces, wellness areas and entertainment facilities.The office block will also include ground-floor shops, a caf and a cocktail bar while the outside spaces include a riverside trail linking Albert and Trinity Bridges.

The Alienware Area-51 namesake is one I've known since I was a young gamer. Ever since my early years playing the Myst series and Fury 3 on my father's computer, the importance of understanding the components within your machine has been a part of my life. As such, when I consider a new desktop PC, I focus on products that will power my daily lifestyle. I need fast connections to my local DIY networking rack, and a platform I can rely on as a 4K content creator. My trusted machine also has to deliver while gaming, which means being able to handle graphics-intensive AAA titles with ease.The latest Alienware Area-51 Desktop PC delivers on all these requirements and more, and is well-suited for gaming enthusiasts and prolific content creators alike. Each configuration is powered by an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU, which means gamers will have access to NVIDIA Blackwell, which powers new graphics innovations like neural rendering and upgraded ray tracing. NVIDIA DLSS 4 boosts frame rates and offers cleaner details to games, while NVIDIA Studio and the newest NVIDIA NIM (Inference Microservices) offer upgrades for creators and developers.Purchasing a gaming desktop PC is an investment, so users should consider both performance and upgradeability when making their decision. The Alienware Area-51 Desktop offers both to serious gamers who don't want to build a new PC from scratch, but also want to own a desktop that makes future upgrades possible for many years.In a year of powerful new GPUs and components requiring more processing power, how is Alienware differentiating itself from the pack? There are three main answers to this: future proofing, upgradeability and accessibility. Alienware Voices Meet industry creators, contributors and emerging thought leaders that have paired with CNETs award-winning editorial team to provide you with unique content from different perspectives. Slick exterior, powerful interiorThe Area-51 Desktop still includes bold design choices, with rounded corners and a futuristic, streamlined look that helps the machine stand out in a sea of rectangular sameness. After feedback from the gaming community and many years of development, Alienware has introduced a new, upgraded Area-51.The Alienware Area-51 has a noticeably clean and spacious interior, with a new Alienware-branded motherboard designed specifically for this desktop PC. The included Alienware motherboard supports a dual-channel RAM configuration, with up to 64GB (in a 2 x 32 GB configuration) of DDR5 XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) memory at a fast data transfer speed of 6400 MT/s. (Third-party motherboards can be installed with the purchase of an AlienFX board conversion kit.) At 80L, this is a full-size PC tower, which allows for compatibility with even the largest components and better thermals.Alienware is offering multiple configurations of the Area-51 Desktop, so serious gamers have many options depending on their needs, including the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPU and Intel Core Ultra 9 285K CPU. At launch, the desktop features the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 GPU.The company sells up to 8TB using the M.2 PCIe NVMe slots on the motherboard. In addition, Area-51 includes a 3.5" HDD bay and two 2.5" SSD bays for additional storage expansion beyond the three M.2 PCIe slots. The Area-51 may support more than 36TBs of storage depending on drive availability. AlienwareQuiet and coolKeeping your desktop cool is crucial for longevity, and keeping its noise low is crucial for your sanity. To address both these needs, the Area-51 doesn't have any exhaust fans. Instead, its new positive pressure airflow system uses three different fan sizes (dual 140mm fans, dual 180mm fans and dual or triple 120mm fans, built with compatibility for both liquid and air-cooled options) and a gasket architecture to better enable air intake and keep components cool during intensive gaming sessions. Once that cool air enters the system, it is then naturally heated by the components. Gaskets located inside the chassis prevent air leakage and build positive pressure, pushing the hot air out through a passive exhaust, while also reducing air circulation and noise. According to Alienware, this translates to 25% more air, a 13% cooler temperature, a 45% quieter experience and 50% more processing power. While you have the option of upgrading the fans to a 420mm liquid-cooled option, the tower includes either 360mm LC or 240mm LC.Dust is another common problem for desktop PCs because it can decrease airflow and efficiency over time. The Area-51 introduces three removable and cleanable filters found on the front, top and bottom of the system. Each of these filters can catch dust to help airflow stay unrestricted and reduce the accumulation on your internal components. In my experience building computers, many towers integrate filters, but don't make them easily accessible. The Area-51 allows you to access these filters without having to take apart the chassis, allowing for easier routine maintenance.Alienware designed the Area-51 Desktop with environmentally friendly components. A tempered-glass door protects your tower from heat and scratches, the side panel is constructed from steel and the chassis includes water-based paints that have low toxicity and low flammability. AlienwareAccessible and easy to upgradeLearning how to replace or upgrade your power supply unit (PSU) can be a complicated task if you've never done it. If you've never switched out components before, how do you educate yourself on the process without potentially damaging your investment?By scanning QR codes located on or near the Area-51 PSU, you'll be redirected to one of several video tutorials showing you exactly how to replace the unit. The videos explain everything from where the screws are located on the tower to how to remove and plug in modular cables. In addition to clear audio and visible directions, captions and transcripts ensure accessibility. Even for a gamer like myself who has invested decades into my library of PC games and hundreds of hours in playtime, the task of upgrading and maintaining can sometimes feel like a chore. I am a true visual learner it's why I enjoy making videos so I understand the struggle of trying to learn from a printed guide. Unless you already know where to look or what a component is called, building and maintaining a personal computer can be a daunting task. At the time of this writing, Alienware has produced video tutorials explaining how to install a PSU, a solid state drive, a graphics card, memory modules and maintain your fan filters.The chassis includes grooves or indentations located on the bottom front of the bezel and the top of the rear that are designed for grabbing. This design allows gamers to easily access both sides of the tower to keep cables organized and switch out components as needed. The Alienware Area-51 Desktop includes your choice of either a 1500W Platinum- or an 850W Gold-rated PSU, either of which ensure proper wattage and power efficiency for the included components. And if you get stuck at any point, Alienware Elite Care makes it easy to get help on-demand.While the Alienware Area-51 has been an iconic brand for gamers since 1998, this newest version provides guidance for those who want it, while also letting serious gamers customize their experience. I'm confident my younger self would've been completely blown away by everything this PC has to offer.

One of the most common questions I get as a real estate professional is, "When are home prices going to come down?"It makes sense, of course, with the headlines predicting crashes, recessions and market downturns. Buying a home is a huge financial decision, and it's natural to wait for the housing market to become more affordable.

Sure, home values can fluctuate, but prices are stuck at all-time highs. We can partly blame inflation, which is making everything more expensive. We can also blame a massive housing shortagefor keeping competition up. Across most of the US, we still don't have enough homes available for those who want to buy them.It's my job as a realtor to tell my clients never to rush out to buy the first home they see. But if you're still sitting on the sidelines waiting for a major drop in home prices, you might be waiting forever.Home prices aren't plunging anytime soonA lot of people think real estate is like a stock -- prices go up, prices go down. If you time the market, you can get in at the lowest possible price. Except homes aren't like stocks at all.Home prices don't just suddenly drop. A combination of factors prevents them from falling significantly, from supply and demand to inflation, from mortgage rates to homeowners' emotional attachment to their properties.I've been in the real estate industry long enough to know that housing downturns don't happen in a vacuum. Let's dive into the key reasons why a big price drop in today's market is unlikely.1. Supply is low, demand is highAt its core, the housing market is driven by supply and demand. When there are more buyers than available homes, prices go up. Depending on what report you read, the US is short between four and six million homes.The severe undersupply of homes has been a problem for over a decade. After the 2008 financial crisis, homebuilding slowed dramatically and never fully ramped back up. Restrictive zoning laws and rising construction costs have made it difficult to build new homes at the pace needed. In many areas, the high cost of breaking ground on new construction incentivizes builders to just focus on higher-end homes, leaving first-time buyers with even fewer options.At the same time, demand for homes is strong. Millennials, the largest generation in the country, are in their prime homebuying years, and many are determined to buy. As long as market demand exceeds supply, home prices will stay strong.2. Inflation keeps home prices elevatedIf you've been to the grocery store, filled up your gas tank or paid for any service lately, you've seen firsthand how inflation affects prices. Housing is no different.Inflation puts long-term upward pressure on prices. After peaking in early 2022, inflation started to ease after the Federal Reserve's series of interest rate hikes. But recent data shows consumer prices rising again.As inflation erodes the value of money, tangible assets like real estate become more expensive. A home that cost $300,000 in 2010 would now be worth around $427,000 just from inflation alone. Even if housing demand cools temporarily, home values tend to rise over time simply because of how our financial system works.Home prices don't just suddenly drop. A combination of factors prevents them from falling significantly, from supply and demand to inflation, from mortgage rates to homeowners' emotional attachment to their properties. 3. It costs a lot to sell a homeSelling a home isn't as simple as listing it online and waiting for offers. It's a process that comes with significant costs for sellers, including real estate commissions, closing costs, staging expenses and potential repairs.For many homeowners, selling is expensive and doesn't make much financial sense. Sellers would rather stay put than take a financial hit, and fewer homes on the market prevent prices from falling.4. The rate-lock effect freezes supplyThe rate-lock effect is one of the biggest reasons why existing homes aren't hitting the market.During the pandemic, millions of homeowners locked in ultra-low mortgage rates, some as low as 2 to 3%. These homeowners are not eager to trade their sub-3% mortgage for a new one at 7%. Even with home values rising, many homeowners don't want to take on a significantly higher mortgage payment for their next home.Until mortgage rates come down substantially, many homeowners will stay put, keeping inventory tight and prices steady.5. People selling homes are also buying themMost sellers are also buyers. Every home that gets sold is usually offset by another purchase. Unlike in 2008, when foreclosures flooded the market, today's sellers are typically moving by choice, not out of necessity.Demand for homes has a lot to do with life stages. People get married, have kids, relocate for jobs, downsize or look for better schools. Even in a high-rate environment over the last two years, these factors have kept the housing market moving.6. Homeowners see higher value in their propertiesPeople have a deep emotional connection to their homes, and that plays a role in pricing. When homeowners see a neighbor's house sell for top dollar, they often believe their home is worth the same or more. Even in slower markets, homeowners are reluctant to accept lower offers unless they absolutely have to sell.Unlike stocks, where people are quick to cut losses, homeowners tend to hold onto their properties rather than take a perceived loss. This is another reason why home prices tend to be sticky, even during economic downturns.Would a recession lead to lower home prices?I often hear the argument that home prices will drop if we enter a recession. While it's true that economic downturns can impact housing, most recessions don't lead to significant price declines.Historically, home prices have remained stable or even risen during recessions. Layoffs tend to impact lower-income workers who are less likely to be homeowners, and those who do own homes typically have enough equity to avoid distressed sales. Unlike in 2008, where risky lending led to foreclosures, today's homeowners are in a much stronger financial position.Why it costs more to wait to buy a homeOver the last 60 years, home prices have appreciated at an average rate of 4.6% per year. If you're waiting for a housing crash, you're betting against a trend that has been remarkably consistent.Even if home prices stagnate, interest rates could stay high, which impacts affordability far more than a small price drop. And it could end up costing you more to wait. Renting instead of buying means missing out on years of home equity, and inflation will just continue making homes more expensive over time.Tips for homebuyersIf you're trying to decide whether to buy, focus on your own financial situation rather than trying to time the market.Financial stability: If you can afford a down payment, make sure your projected monthly mortgage payment is comfortable and sustainable. You should also have enough money in the bank for closing costs, insurance, taxes and other homeowner fees.Consider different markets: Not all real estate markets are created equal. Pay attention to what's happening in your specific area. At the time of this article, Florida inventory is growing while the Northeast is still in very short supply.Think long term: Real estate is not about what will happen today or tomorrow but rather decades from now. As a general rule, plan to stay in your home for at least five or seven years so that short-term market fluctuations won't matter much.Read more:
