I picked up a marketing brochure from the development at the top of Hampden Rd but was shocked to discover what they've done to the Mosque's roof?
Presumably the thinking is that people willing to pay £550K for a flat aren't going to want it next to a Mosque?
Nice of Fairview Homes to embrace the spirit of Haringey's multiculturalism ;-)

I think you are right. At first, they would not let me view without speaking to their financial advisor which I refused. They then started bombarding me with texts. I went to view out of curiosity last weekend. The marketing material is quite funny. It talks about discovering Hornsey but shows a picture of Crouch End. The charity shops are being described as antique and bric-a-brac shops and shopping highlights includes The Mall, North London Vintage Market, Parlour Room Interiors and Black Gull Books in N2. I only know The Mall. The best plots were sold in Asia and there are some very odd shaped plots. Also interesting one of the pictures in the material implies that there will be a Starbucks having slipped in their logo.
Proving it can be done. When the Councillors have the Right Mind
As far as I know they are the first council to go down this route. The initial developers (Barrattt) pulled out of the £6bn contract last year and a new group of developers was brought in this summer. They have the advantage of a massive site (the one next to IKEA) and a new railway station which is incredibly attractive for investors. The tenure mix is still up in the air but there so far nothing on the table apart from that some of the units will be affordable. Other local authorities are watching with interest to see how successful it is but full delivery isn’t expected for 20 years.
