Park Hill does not deserve to win. The majority of the original flats are boarded up awaiting refurbishment and this does no credit to Sheffield City Council.
Whatever the merits of the Hawkins Brown and Urban Splash refurbishment of the northernmost block, it cannot be judged alone and must be seen in the wider context of the whole estate.
In my opinion this scheme should never have been entered for the Stirling Prize. It's inappropriate.
