This paper reports the framework of the new view protection plan composed of the London Plan (2004) and London View Management Framework (2007) published by GLA. This new plan:
1) gives Mayor of London the important role to preserve and enhance the views from the broader perspective;
2) classifies views into four types and designates 26 important views;
3) establishes two management approaches, Geometric Definition and Qualitative View Assessment;
4) shows the location of designated views precisely by using coordinates and height;
5) relaxes height restriction due to narrowing width of viewing corridors;
