The Isle of Dogs is a genuinely unique area. The isolating effect of the Thames’ meandering course, the physical legacy of the docks and shipping, and the area’s re-invention as one of the world’s key financial centres has created a place that is recognisably different from the rest of the Borough. Whilst Canary Wharf acts at a scale which helps bolster London’s world city status, at a local level it acts as the major shopping and leisure focus for the island - its city centre and ‘west-end’. These functions are supplemented by a wide range of other employment, leisure, retail, entertainment, public open space and residential uses and the Isle of Dogs is fast becoming a compact ‘city within a city’. 1.2 This Area Action Plan focuses on implementation in order to: i. deliver planned growth areas; ii. stimulate regeneration; iii. protect areas particularly sensitive to change; and iv. focus the delivery of area based regeneration initiatives. 1.3 The Area Action Plan will help ensure that development and growth is delivered so as to provide the maximum, long-term benefit for the Borough and its communities and so that the area’s exceptional characteristics are protected and enhanced. Relationship with national and regional planning policy 1.10 National planning policy is contained in a series of Planning Policy Statements and other documents which establish planning principles and policies for the whole of England. The Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan has been prepared to be consistent with National Planning Policy. 1.11 The London Plan, which is prepared by the Mayor of London, sets out regional planning policies for the whole of Greater London. The Isle of Dogs is located in the East London Sub-Region as identified in the London Plan, and is designated as an Opportunity Area, meaning that the Isle of Dogs is capable of accommodating substantial new jobs and/or homes. The designation in the London Plan of the Isle of Dogs as an Opportunity Area has provided a stimulus for the preparation of the Area Action Plan, and it has been prepared to be in general conformity with the London Plan. The intention is that this Area Action Plan will act as the Opportunity Area Planning Framework for the Isle of Dogs. 8 Tower Hamlets Interim Planning Guidance Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan Relationship with the Community Plan 1.12 The Tower Hamlets Community Plan describes the kind of place that people who live and work in the Borough want Tower Hamlets to be, with thousands of people contributing to its development. The Community Plan aims to improve the quality of life for everyone living and working in Tower Hamlets. This is delivered through the Tower Hamlets Partnership which brings together all stakeholders to ensure effective, responsive and inclusive delivery of the Community Plan. The Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan seeks to contribute to achieving the aims and objectives of the Community Plan. Figure 1 shows the key themes of the Community Plan. Figure 1 Community Plan diagram Creating and Learning Living Safely Living Well Sharing Prosperity Achievement Stay Safe Be Healthy Achieving and Leisure economic wellbeing Enjoy and Learn Excellent Public Services Making a positive contribution Structure of the Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan 1.13 The Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan is structured to provide a comprehensive basis for the future planning of the area and to ensure its directions are clear. 1.14 Chapter 1 of the Area Action Plan sets out important contextual information about the Isle of Dogs, including a brief overview of its history and its location in the borough and London-wide context. The various sub-areas which are used in the Area Action Plan are also identified in Chapter 1. 1.15 Chapter 2 sets out key issues for the Isle of Dogs which have emerged from the review of the evidence base which has informed the Area Action Plan, as well as the key issues which have been derived from a variety of consultation exercises. It then builds on both the context and the key issues to set out a comprehensive vision for the Isle of Dogs, drawing both from the Community Plan and the views of the various communities on the Isle of Dogs. It then sets out the overarching spatial strategy to support the delivery of this vision. This spatial policy is illustrated in a key diagram to show the key elements 9 Tower Hamlets Interim Planning Guidance Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan of change on the Isle of Dogs. This section aligns with the Tower Hamlets Core Strategy which provides the key strategic directions for the Isle of Dogs. 1.16 Chapter 3 set out a number of cross-cutting policies that are relevant across the whole of the Isle of Dogs. These policies seek to ensure that the infrastructure and services required to support change and growth can be provided and include transport and movement, health, education, open space and water space, and infrastructure, services and waste. 1.17 Chapter 4 provides detailed planning policies for the sub-areas of the Isle of Dogs. These policies build on the overall spatial strategy set out in Chapter 2, and seek to provide policies for each sub-area which clearly set the directions for each area in order to appropriately manage change. These sections also identify site allocations and their preferred uses. 1.18 Chapter 5 outlines the key methods to implement the spatial strategy and deliver the vision for the Isle of Dogs. Key projects are illustrated in Figure 23. 1.19 Appendix 1 provides an overview of key public open spaces on the Isle of Dogs (existing and planned), and shows how the public open space policies of the Area Action Plan are to be implemented. 1.20 Appendix 2 provides a list of all policies included in this plan. 1.21 Appendix 3 provides a list of all relevant supporting information used in the formulation of the policies for the Area Action Plan. 10 Tower Hamlets Interim Planning Guidance Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan This page has been left intentionally blank 11 Tower Hamlets Interim Planning Guidance Isle of Dogs Area Action Plan Isle of Dogs in context Location 1.22 The Isle of Dogs is located on the River Thames, approximately 4 kilometres from the City of London.

  • Whitechapel Vision
    DELIVERING THE REGENERATION PROSPECTUS MAY 2015 2 delivering the WHitechapel vision n 2014 the Council launched the national award-winning Whitechapel Masterplan, to create a new and ambitious vision for Whitechapel which would Ienable the area, and the borough as a whole, to capitalise on regeneration opportunities over the next 15 years. These include the civic redevelopment of the Old Royal London Hospital, the opening of the new Crossrail station in 2018, delivery of new homes, and the emerging new Life Science campus at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). These opportunities will build on the already thriving and diverse local community and local commercial centre focused on the market and small businesses, as well as the existing high quality services in the area, including the award winning Idea Store, the Whitechapel Art Gallery, and the East London Mosque. The creation and delivery of the Whitechapel Vision Masterplan has galvanised a huge amount of support and excitement from a diverse range of stakeholders, including local residents and businesses, our strategic partners the Greater London Authority and Transport for London, and local public sector partners in Barts NHS Trust and QMUL as well as the wider private sector. There is already rapid development activity in the Whitechapel area, with a large number of key opportunity sites moving forward and investment in the area ever increasing. The key objectives of the regeneration of the area include: • Delivering over 3,500 new homes by 2025, including substantial numbers of local family and affordable homes; • Generating some 5,000 new jobs; • Transforming Whitechapel Road into a destination shopping area for London • Creating 7 new public squares and open spaces.

  • From Sail to Steam: London's Role in a Shipbuilding Revolution Transcript
    From Sail to Steam: London's Role in a Shipbuilding Revolution Transcript Date: Monday, 24 October 2016 - 1:00PM Location: Museum of London 24 October 2016 From Sail to Steam: London’s Role in a Shipbuilding Revolution Elliott Wragg Introduction The almost deserted River Thames of today, plied by pleasure boats and river buses is a far cry from its recent past when London was the greatest port in the world. Today only the remaining docks, largely used as mooring for domestic vessels or for dinghy sailing, give any hint as to this illustrious mercantile heritage. This story, however, is fairly well known. What is less well known is London’s role as a shipbuilder While we instinctively think of Portsmouth, Plymouth and the Clyde as the homes of the Royal Navy, London played at least an equal part as any of these right up until the latter half of the 19th century, and for one brief period was undoubtedly the world’s leading shipbuilder with technological capability and capacity beyond all its rivals. Little physical evidence of these vast enterprises is visible behind the river wall but when the tide goes out the Thames foreshore gives us glimpses of just how much nautical activity took place along its banks. From the remains of abandoned small craft at Brentford and Isleworth to unique hulked vessels at Tripcockness, from long abandoned slipways at Millwall and Deptford to ship-breaking assemblages at Charlton, Rotherhithe and Bermondsey, these tantalising remains are all that are left to remind us of London’s central role in Britain’s maritime story.

[email protected] Abstract We explore place branding as an economic development strategy for technology clusters, using London’s ‘Tech City’ initiative as a case study. We site place branding in a larger family of policies that develop spatial imaginaries, and specify affordances and constraints on place brands and brand-led strategies. Using mixed methods over a long timeframe, we analyse Tech City’s emergence and the overlapping, competing narratives that preceded and succeeded it, highlighting day-to-day challenges and more basic tensions. While a strong brand has developed, we cast doubt on claims that policy has had a catalytic effect, at least in the ways originally intended.
