In a nutshell, what's wrong with the developer's plans?

  • Consultation hasn’t been meaningful or inclusive
  • Site design is too dense & overdeveloped
  • “Affordable” housing isn’t affordable
  • Insufficient environmental credentials
  • There are no community facilities
  • Women’s Building offer is vastly insufficient
  • We need more green space
  • Homes don’t meet daylight standards
  • No inclusion of co-housing
  • Different tenures aren’t integrated together
