C Welcome to the first issue of Clipper, a magazine that champions the creative and innovative communities of London’s East End. Running across East India Docks and Poplar to Canning Town, Clipper tells the unique stories of the people and businesses who increasingly call this area home. London’s strength lies in its diversity, its adaptability, and its creativity. In this issue, we explore the eastward migration of London’s creative industries, and meet the personalities behind this shift. On pg 6 our guest columnist David Michon tackles the question: how are creative neighbourhoods born? From the local institution that is Maureen’s pie shop on pg 13 to a perfume maker reshaping the traditions of his trade on pg 16, it is this combination of the old and the new, entrepreneurial heritage and contemporary innovation, that makes this corner of East London such an inspiring destination for creative minds to both live and work.

  • FOI 9311 Parks in LB Tower Hamlets and List of Parks by Size Since 1938
    FOI 9311 Parks created since 1938 Could you please supply a list of all open spaces created from January 1938 to December 2012. Please supply the area of each new open space when created History of parks and open spaces in Tower Hamlets, and their heritage significance The History of Parks and Open Space in Tower Hamlets The parks and open spaces of Tower Hamlets have come about through a variety of processes. Some public open spaces were the result of deliberate design or policy, while others are the result of historic accident or expedience. There were broadly three periods during which public open space was created in Tower Hamlets. These moves were primarily to benefit people, rather than improve land or rental values. The first was the deliberate creation of Victoria Park in the mid 19 th century, the late 19 th century saw the conversion of churchyards to public gardens and the most recent was in the mid 20 th century after World War 2. Various open spaces are the result of late 18 th and 19 th century urban design, being planned formal gardens set in London Squares. As such they are protected by the London Squares Preservation Act, 1931. These sites include Trinity Square Gardens , Arbour Square , Albert Gardens and the little known Oval in Bethnal Green. See full list of protected London Squares below. Many churchyards, particularly in the west of borough became public open spaces managed by the local authority. Having been closed to further burial use because they were overflowing, they were converted in the second half of the 19 th century into public gardens.

PA/12/00637 Strategic planning application stage 1 referral (new powers) Town & Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended); Greater London Authority Acts 1999 and 2007; Town & Country Planning (Mayor of London) Order 2008 The proposal Redevelopment of the site to provide a residential led mixed use development, comprising the erection of part 6/7 to 25 storey buildings to provide 232 dwellings and 143 sqm of new commercial floorspace falling within use classes A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, D1 and/or D2, plus car parking spaces, cycle parking, refuse/recycling facilities and access together with landscaping including public, communal and private amenity space The applicant The applicant is Ballymore and the architect is Stock Wolstencroft. Strategic issues The principle of a residential development including a tall building on the site is acceptable. Viability discussions are ongoing and it is not yet clear that the proposal delivers the maximum reasonable amount of affordable housing. Urban design, inclusive design and climate change issues require some further information. Further work and conditions and obligations are also required with regards to transport to address outstanding concerns. Recommendation That Tower Hamlets Council be advised that while the application is generally acceptable in strategic planning terms the application does not comply with the London Plan, for the reasons set out in paragraph 84 of this report; but that the possible remedies set out in paragraph 85 of this report could address these deficiencies.
