At last, the Community Plan for Wards Corner

The Wards Corner Community Coalition's plan for Wards Corner is now published on the LBH planning portal, ref HGY/2014/0575: 

"231-243 High Road N15 5BT - Restoration of the existing market and corner building bringing 2150m2 of derelict space into A1, A2, A3 and B1 use, installation of bay windows to the front, dormer windows to the front and rear, reinstatement of chimneys, replacement of existing shop-fronts to the front of the market with new glazed facade, improvements to the public realm to the front of the market, new glazed rear doors added to the rear, new DDA compliant access to the first and second floor, reintroduction of internal light-wells from the first to ground floor and insulation of building to increase thermal efficiency."

In short, restoring the boarded-up corner building and first and second floors and rebuilding the indoor market while saving its 200 jobs and facilitating many more.  The main description of the plan can be found at the three sections of the Design+Access Statement, DAS rev A, chapters 1, 2, and 3-4, c. 20th> items on the list of documents. 

This is the core area of the Seven Sisters town centre threatened with demolition by the notorious Grainger plan. 

Comments will be open for three weeks, nominally closing on 28th March. We will be having an open meeting/launch/feedback session on 27th March, venue TBC close to home. More details to follow, meanwhile please have a look at the plans and add your comments. If so minded, don't forget to tick the 'Support the application' button so it makes counting easy.

The LBH Planning Dept should make its decision by 24th April.
