Go to the project

This project is much bigger than this, they are building sky scrapers in a small neighbourhood and on a tiny patch of land destroying not only the only car park but also a beautiful synagogue. Goodbye suburb feel - the greed has arrived in Streatham, the houses they are building are shared accommodation and not really affordable, most people don’t earn £75k/year to be able to afford one. Imagine the transient population these would attract - they are not building homes for families, it’s a quick cash grab.

They are also cutting off all the mature trees and replacing with cement and ignoring the conservation area. Yes we need more homes but this is crazy overdevelopment and it’s inconsiderate towards all neighbours, it will be years of construction noise, dirt, trucks on an already busy road, more burst pipes!

The land was transferred to developers pocket living for £1. They anlso get preferential treatment regarding loans. Out of 92 flats only 14-15 allocated to council at a cost of over £3 million. Flats are just above legal size. Others are for sharers, not for families. Add in demolition of Dorchester parade opposite and over 110 flats will be built. Streatham Hill doesn’t have the infrastructure to cope. The council have mismanaged the Carpark for years. Also sheltered housing will be negatively affected because of lack of light and sunshine. Use the Carpark for people visiting GP Surgery and other people visiting area. Then maybe on Sunday let’s have a farmers market, carboot or kids skate board park.
