I’d forgotten John Tanner’s intervention. I’d suggest he’s never been to
Berlin, the Unter den Linden is a busily trafficked street leading up to the
Brandenburg Gate, and a poor model for how Broad Street could be. Ironically
John Tanner’s City Council have chopped down the tall lime tree at Bonn Square,
so there’s not much chance of sitting in the shade ‘unter der Linde’ there now.
I see the Oxford Preservation Trust has plenty of information here on the
project to re-develop the street here –

But progress seems to have stopped – does anyone know why?
