| | Prince Charles, Poundbury |
 | | The goal at Poundbury was a place where people of varying ages and incomes could live, work, and fulfill their daily needs a place that would have factories, stores, medical facilities, public spaces, and a variety of housing, all within walking distance. |
 | | According to Charles, the British architecture critic Jonathan Glancey said no working-class types would be welcomed there. That has not turned out to be the case, according to the prince. |
 | | Charles, although a strong admirer of traditional craftsmanship, seems open to a degree of industrialization of housing production especially at a time when Britain needs to build quickly to counteract the enormous escalation in housing costs over the past several years. |
