Leeds had one development of medium rise large scale flats, which were built in Quarry Hill in the 1930s, however they were more conventional in their enclosed design.

Each floor had a rubbish disposal chute leading to huge bins at street level.

The estate covered a large area of Hunslet and was arranged in three clusters around a small park.

The warm-air heating systems were inadequate for the poorly insulated concrete prefabricated buildings, the interiors suffered from condensation and the exterior walls became streaked with black.

In addition, the 'rabbit-warren' like layout of interconnecting blocks made the estate hard to navigate and police, reduced resident surveillance and provided a haven for surreptitious criminal activity.

Today the site consists of low-rise housing, the Hunslet Green Community Sports Club and a small business park.
