Marble Arch Mound: deputy council leader resigns over £6m cost
Price of structure created by Westminster council has nearly doubled amid ‘teething problems’
A Conservative councillor who spearheaded the building of a 25-metre artificial hill intended to tempt shoppers back to central London has resigned after costs nearly doubled to £6m.
The Marble Arch Mound has faced widespread criticism and mockery since it appeared on the corner of Hyde Park and Oxford Street in July.
