I fully support the plans for the new King Alfred development and believe it would make a significant contribution to Brighton and Hove becoming a major international city (The Argus, March 24).

Britain has no international city by the sea. Brighton and Hove is uniquely placed and I firmly believe the King Alfred development, with its design, ecological friendliness and affordable homes, is just what our city needs to attract further investment and to give its profile a much-needed lift.
