    I rather liked David Hannent's idea of treating the DTIZ as a legoland and building bit by bit on a small scale affordable to locals and entrepreneurs, creating a network of streets akin to the picturesque conservation area in Deal.

    DDC planners appear to be afflicted by giganticism, painstakingly assembling a jigsaw of land until they have sufficient demolition wasteland to throw up more giant buildings to replace the unwanted giant structures erected by the planners of yesteryear.

    The Master Plans remind me irresistibly of the dreams of Speer and Hitler for building a new Berlin. The photo below is of the Volkshall which would have formed the centrepiece with its 700 foot dome. Could DDC not just obtain the plans for this and build it on the DTIZ - it would be particularly popular with our German cruise ship passengers.

    It could be named the Temple of Consumerism and would be of great interest to another of our supermarket chains. People would come from far and wide to do their weekly shop in such an imposing edifice and it would form a lasting testimony to the wisdom of our planners.
