New London Architecture (NLA) is London’s centre for excellence for the built environment. Our purpose is to make London a better place for those who live, work and visit. We do this through a busy year-round programme of research, events, festivals, exhibitions, publications, promoting debate and discussion about the future of cities. NLA at Coal Drops Yard provides access for professionals, the public and young people, helping to inform good decision-making and inspiring young people to engage with the built environment.
