Further to your article about the King Alfred redevelopment (The Argus, October 12), a new word has now come into the English language - hideosity, meaning "a hideous monstrosity erected for profit and as a boost to certain egos".
The majority of sane residents hate the idea of these blocks but, presumably, they will be crushed by the developers' steamrollers, set to destroy our cherished environment.
-Mr and Mrs Clare, Portslade
