A suggestion has been put forward to close the historic RAF Northolt station and build 20,000 homes on the site in an attempt to combat London's housing crisis.
The idea was submitted by Ealing Council for the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan's "City for All Londoners" document which outlines challenges and opportunities from across the capital.
Ealing suggested the working 100-year-old RAF station could be closed as it “serves no real strategic importance” and the land could instead be developed for housing.
The council has called for “radical thinking” and said the plans could help meet the housing challenges London faces.
