Are NIMBYs punching far above their political weight?

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

A nimby campaign is trying to block a significant development a short walk from Hackney Wick station;
"10 storeys. 280 co-living studios. One chance to object."
Of course, you can also use the details supplied to submit a note of support 👇 https://t.co/KyCd0Hp3ug

It seems that Argun printers/stationers are relocating from around the corner

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

Amhurst Road's NatWest Bank now closed, building empty and on the market. Great location directly opposite Hackney Central station.

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

An application has been submitted for a new @LidlGB store to replace the Jet petrol station on Lower Clapton Road.
This is great news which will bring more footfall to the high-street, but the proposal is underdevelopment and should have multiple floors of housing above.

View from the sky of our Wimbourne Street development as we near completion.

In partnership with the @hackneycouncil, this former garage site is being transformed into 59 new mixed-tenure homes, with a café, play area and greener spaces for the community.

East Architecture has gained planning permission for 72 infill homes at the Frampton Park Estate in Hackney https://t.co/567hUOIhh5

'The party says any Green-run councils would make use of compulsory purchase orders to bring long-term empty shops back into public use.
.., these shops would be leased to small businesses at rates deemed affordable by the council, the party says.' https://t.co/tZMsAUjAxG

@NightingaleE5 I've not heard any timeframe but I noticed a new crew has just started the groundworks (who appear to be using the old Windsor Castle pub next door as temporary offices)

@InvictusAFC But was it a threat?
https://t.co/vwrKX26iAg

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

Here's hoping this statement from @mayorofhackney will allay any fears.
It's been well over a year now since these applications were submitted.

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

'A planning application for a building next to Hackney’s Moth Club has been refused by Hackney Council. The proposal for six residential flats and a ground floor commercial building.. next to the historic venue would have seriously threatened its future'
https://t.co/aW9lexSRi8

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

Apparently another application has been submitted for the adjacent site.
(The Moth Club has launched a petition opposing the proposals which already has almost 5,500 signatures!)

[Stokey Updates @StokeyUpdates]

Update: The planning app to build a 3-storey house to the rear of 119 Church Street has been refused 'due to its size, scale and design harming the Stoke Newington Conservation Area, substandard living space, impact on neighbours, loss of storage space without justification...'

[Hybrid Planning & Development @Hybrid_Planning]

We have secured planning permission for the redevelopment of a challenging backland site in Stoke Newington into 35 new homes, including 35% affordable housing.

Extra storey now completed...

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

This 4-storey building in Hackney Wick was constructed less than a decade ago and already it is undergoing an upward extension.

Was it really that difficult to foresee the demand for living in this location?

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

...Consultation on the Future Shoreditch Area Action Plan can be seen here;
https://t.co/08i8GEarKr
(Bit of confusion whether it closes on the 7th or 9th April)

'Hackney Council has unveiled plans it says will fuel housebuilding and economic growth in one of east London’s most prominent arts and fashion hotspots.' https://t.co/YRvnu92rNG

..'If approved, the changes are likely to influence the fate of a major commercial and residential development left in limbo last month.'

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

Mad Atelier shop on Lower Clapton Road has closed down.

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

..and also for the former Santander site next door. (also via @thedtw_)

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

Turns out an application was submitted in 2023 for a residential development above Boots. Not sure how it progressed. (Via @thedtw_ )

[Hackney YIMBY @HackneyYIMBY]

This hugely underutilized site opposite Dalston Kingsland Station is up for auction.
Shame Boots have a lease until 2030.
