A lot of sub-standard Victorian housing was cleared, and the gridiron road pattern obliterated, in the Meadows redevelopment of the 1970s. After the disastrous 1960s experiment with deck-access flats at Balloon Wood, Basford and Hyson Green - all of which were quickly demolished - the Meadows and St Ann's areas were redeveloped with low-rise housing.
