In January 2008 I raised the twin issues of of dumping outside this address; with the further problem that a few motorists used the forecourt to park - driving over the pavement or a dropped kerb to do so. (Click on the photos for a bit more information.)

 

Suzanne, you may want to email Cllr Nilgun Canver who is both the "Cabinet" councillor for Environmental issues and one of the ward councillors. nilgun.canver@haringey.gov.uk

We have lived across the road from this eyesore since 1986, it has never looked any different since that time to the present day, except when people decide to decorate by dumping rubbish there.

Mary, I can't believe that it has sat there this long and who knows how longer beyond that.  Thanks for your reply.

Hi Mary

Thanks for posting this as it is something we should have taken up sooner.

I agree the shop is an eyesore. I also noticed that upstairs seems to be in use as housing which happened some time ago. I think a good place to start is contacting the Council to see if they know about the ownership of the property and to establish whether it is listed as a commercial premises. TI'll do that. It might get the process going to stop it being used as a dumping site. I'll keep you posted on progress.

Zena

Thank you very much Zena. It would be brilliant if this building could be brought back to life or at least made more presentable. It was nice to see that the old derelict bank just around the corner has been turned into a restaurant. It's always good to see any kind of improvement within the community landscape.

Hi Suzanne,

We have recently moved to Station Crescent and have commented on the shop on the corner I am happy to help if you need people to get involved as it would be great to see it used in some way other than a dumping ground.
