21. CHRISTOPHER AND HIS PLANS

Christopher planned a fine new city. A town of handsome buildings, boulevards and piazzas.

But it was not to be. Business considerations proved too strong. The hopes for a new London after the Fire of 1666 were to prove as illusory as those after the great fire raid of 1941.
