I am amazed Brighton and Hove City Council is planning for just 260 homes, 110 affordable, within the proposed Preston Barracks development - a site 30 per cent larger than the King Alfred where the Karis "Tin Cans" are to provide 438 homes with a significant proportion affordable.
Preston Barracks could meet a major part of the City's needs for affordable housing.
The location has good public transport, giving access for those working at the hospitals, shops and offices in the centre.
Four different designs are being considered but an alternative which is going cheap already exists.
All that is needed is to transfer the Karis "Tin Cans" to Preston Barracks, they could perhaps be known as "Tin Mugs" as carried by soldiers in the past.
