My concern is that the remit of the DRC was far too large. Freezing St Mark's City Council out of any influence or oversight of the area covered by the DRC was an oversight. Furthermore, the footfall in the area; the number of people attracted to what little has been constructed is poor and the area is desolate after 6pm. I think a significant parcel of the land should be passed back to the city council for housing use, but I still think the DRC was the right idea; it was just overtaken by events.

I think, then, that most of us would agree that it was an error to model the DRC so closely on the LDDC? I am thinking especially of the freezing out of local government.

Precisely. It was too grand an ambition for too small an area.
