Links

This section of the TOWER BLOCK International website contains links to resources that will hopefully be of interest to those researching mass housing and postwar modernism. If any of these links become inoperative, or if you know of an exceptional website that should be added to the list of links, please contact us at m.glendinning@ed.ac.uk, and we will amend the list of sites.
