The project speculates on the de-centralization of the financial district of the city of London to Canary Wharf so that the City would become a shrinking city.
Furthermore the project speculates on the threats posed by rising water levels which put the City of London at risk of becoming a sinking city in need of a rescue strategy.
The project proposes to erase parts of the urban fabric to reveal the lost river Walbrook and extend the Thames back into the city, effecting a cultural revivial and acting against flooding.
