Fwd: Huntingdon Estate - your objections are needed NOW!

[Lucy Rogers]

This is the new proposal for Bethnal Green Road opposite the new Shoreditch Station.

A key point is that all the affordable housing - a twin application - is being put on a cheap triangular site between two railway lines near the old Shoreditch Station. The tower would be filled with un-affordable apartments overshadowing the Boundary Estate, the oldest purpose-built council housing in England.
