It appears that Haringey council's attempts to be the greenest borough have taken a bit of a knock this week under the plans to develop the old coroner's court site in Hornsey High Street.
If the developers get the go-ahead from the council's planing committee it will see the creation of a new Sainsbury's and up to 300 new homes at the expense of the recycling centre currently occuping the depot behind the old court.
The centre only opened in the last couple of years, and if it is closed we will have to traipse all the way over to the Park Road site again, which really disincentivises people from this part of the world to take their recycling seriously. One of the benefits of it is that it is within walking distance for many people.
I think it would result in the loss of a good amenity, and hope that another centre can be opened locally before it closes.
Time to put pressure on our councillors again I think.
