Attempts were made to decongest localities, green the open spaces reduce pollution and landscape the city.
Large blocks of apartments were built, similar to those in Berlin and New York cities which had similar housing problems.
Rent control was introduced in Britain during the First World War to ease the impact of a severe housing shortage. The congestion in the nineteenth-century industrial city also led to a desire for clean country air.
Demands were made for new lungs for the city, and some attempts were made to bridge the difference between city and countryside through such ideas as the Green Belt around London.
Architect and planner Ebenezer Howard developed the principle of the Garden City, a pleasant space full of plants and trees, where people would both live and work.
Following Howards ideas Raymond Unwin and Barry Parker designed the garden city of New Ears wick. There were common garden spaces, beautiful views, and great attention to detail.
In the end, only well-off workers could afford these houses. Between the two World Wars (1919-39) the responsibility for housing the working classes was accepted by the British state, and a million houses, most of them single-family cottages, were built by local authorities.
Better-planned suburbs and a good railway network enabled large numbers to live outside central London and travel to work.
