Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser. Friday 19 July & Saturday 20 July 2013 Plans for the redevelopment of the Kingsland Shopping Centre and the Dalston Eastern Curve Garden Criterion Capital who own the Kingsland Shopping Centre are starting to make public their plans for the demolition and redevelopment of the site. They are working with the architects Waugh Thistleton to build new retail space, approximately 500 new flats and new public space. Their plans also include the redevelopment of the land on which the Dalston Eastern Curve Garden is located, which prior to its creation was derelict. Part of the land on which the Garden sits is also owned by Hackney Council. Criterion Capital have loaned their land since 2010. Their current plans now envisage the development of the Garden into a paved route to the new shopping centre. Criterion Capital are now holding a public exhibition to gather responses from the public to their redevelopment plans, on the following two dates: Friday 19 July, 2pm - 7pm Saturday 20 July, 11am - 2pm You can read more about their plans and see images at www.kingslandconsultation.com The exhibition will be held at the Kingsland High Street entrance to the shopping centre, in an unused unit, opposite KFC. If you can't make it along to the consultation this weekend, you can let Criterion Capital know what you think by phone or email: Phone 0845 262 0138 in...@KingslandConsultation.com The day to day management of the Garden is by a social enterprise which was set up by local residents who have been involved with the Garden since it was first created. Discussions with representatives of Criterion Capital and Waugh Thistleton have taken place over the last six weeks about their proposals and the future of the Garden. This Friday 19 July, 1-8pm and Saturday 20 July, 11am-6pm, we will be holding drop-in sessions at the Garden to share the discussions we have had with Criterion Capital and Hackney Council to date. We hope you can make it along to hear more about these conversations, and to discuss the future of the Dalston Eastern Curve Garden.

It's worrying. The artist's impressions of the site post-development show a large concrete 'plaza' style space with token greenery. The sort of place that becomes the absolute opposite of the happy bustling public space fantasy of architects' drawings and models - blighted, under- or misused and unloved. And for this they'd destroy one of Hackney's gems - a wonderfully cared-for space of clear benefit for the whole community. Another amazing asset that Hackney Council doesn't seem to understand the value of.

Yes the curve garden is fantastic and I can imagine how soulless the proposed space would be
