Anupama Mohanram on why we must revisit the sustainability of high rise developmentsThe current Covid-19 crisis in the country leaves me thinking about the way our cities have developed. There is a definite link between the way our cities are today and the speed at which the pandemic spread. As land in cities is limited and expensive, the only way to accommodate the increasing population is to build upwards. This has led to the countless high rise building developments we are seeing today. It is time for us to reimagine and change the way we are building our cities.
