'It's a monster. But if it stops changing, it will die'

As the London Architecture Biennale kicks off, its director Peter Ackroyd tells Jonathan Glancey how money has transformed the city, and will make it almost unrecognisable by 2010.

He said that London 'It's a monster. But if it stops changing, it will die'. There is, though, as developments in the City and the East End continue to prove, little chance of London coming to heel or becoming one city.

It remains a many-faced, buccaneering, brute beauty.
