The built environment isn't just about buildings. It's about roads, bridges, tunnels and railways, as well as houses, offices, super markets and leisure centres. The built environment is much more than new construction because it also includes repairing, refurbishing, renovating and restoring the ones that are already there. It's about conservation of the built environment.
