Camden New Journal - LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Published: 5 March 2009
 
Social housing and towers

RESIDENTS here have deep concerns regarding the proposed building (Towers plan ‘is social engineering’, February 19).
We have pointed out a number of issues with the plans including having insufficient space for refuse lorries to collect waste, known issues with the sewers in Bonny Street, the design of the building being inconsistent with the listed buildings and the conservation area and concerns about security.
The scale of building is not consistent with others nearby. This development on Camden Road is linked to another in Primrose Hill to allow meeting government guidelines on social housing.
Redevelopment may be a necessity but it seems there is a push to put in cramped sub-standard social housing in Camden Road to allow a developer to make a profit in Primrose Hill.
MARK MURRAY
Bonny Street, NW1
