New paper in Cities! We introduce a method to date UK high streets and find that greater land-use diversity and local centrality is related to their longevity. Modest but meaningful links between form, function and persistence. Open access 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.cities.2025.106136

Location of high streets by epoch across Great Britain, with detailed views of Greater London. (A, E) 1840–1880 sky blue, (B, F) 1890–1910 bluish green, (C, G) 1920–1940 orange, (E, H) ≥1950 vermilion.
