Please keep - the article on Park Hill flats has a link to 'Deck access' and there was no page explaining what it was. GaryReggae (talk) 21:59, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Proposed merger

Latest comment: 16 years ago5 comments3 people in discussion

There is a new article streets in the sky; the subjects overlap substantially. The other one already has better internal and external links, so this article should be merged there. - Fayenatic (talk) 13:28, 22 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

I agree but think the title (Deck access) should be kept as that is a more formal name for this type of housing. GaryReggae (talk) 15:08, 30 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
As both are only small and likely to remain so, another alternative is to merge both into high-rise. - Fayenatic (talk) 19:26, 30 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
High Rise is very different from Deck Access / Streets in the Sky. Many of the latter are a four or five storeys high. High rise is more like 20 to 50 storeys high. I live in a block that was ground, first and second floors that has walkways that could be classed as "streets in the sky". Being small does not mean that they should be added to a different article! I will see what can be done to expand these articles. Gordo (talk) 10:04, 4 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
High-rise has varying definitions, the lowest of which seems to be 4 or more floors. Although your 3-storey block might be described as "streets in the sky", I'm not sure you'd find that in WP:RS. All the examples of usage that I have found in notable/RS seem to be on the high side. The term "streets in the sky" is also used for tower blocks, e.g. [1], so it seems to cover vertical streets (point blocks) as well as deck access. I think it would be a good addition to the History section of high-rise. How about merging it there, and expanding it back to a separate article when time permits? - Fayenatic (talk) 12:47, 6 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Is the definition right? Balfron Tower has/is "streets in the sky" but is not deck access as defined here, because the walkways are enclosed by windows. Even Park Hill's walkways are being given windows now,[2] but surely it doesn't cease to be "deck access"? - Fayenatic (talk) 12:47, 6 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
