One day, all cities will have these sort of data, dynamically mapping the strata of office letting.
Mapping the city vertically, as well as horizontally.
Instead of mapping the physicalities of London, we should map it’s processes.
We should map it’s flows and patterns, it’s trajectories and vectors. We should trace the movement of people, the ebb of capital, the flow of information.
The map will define the territory.
