Will Google finally fund Christopher Wren's post great fire "wide streets" rebuild of the City?

Yeah it’s interesting to imagine a London that had such a rebuild, like Napoleon’s rebuild of Paris. I personally love the weird narrow streets and little alleyways of the City, but that’s because when I’m there I’m pretty much exclusively on foot having taken the tube in.

i think we might need aother great fire to widen the streets at this point
