Why do developers overide the community when it comes to names for their developments?
Inland Homes, who bought the Homebase site, refused to listen to the residents' ideas for a name for the new development. Inland Homes decided on PATCHWORKS ignoring residents requests to link it to its industrial heritage (Hawker Syddeley transformer factory) or farming history.
Poll Tax House/ Juniper House/ Skyline E17, Hoe Street E17 - where did SKYLINE E17 come from? This site changes its name depending on who is trying to market it!
The Mall, Walthamstow Town Centre now called 17&CENTRAL so what will the 34 and 27 storey tower blocks be called being built by LONG HARBOUR ?
MAGISTRATES COURT to MAGISTRATES to HEPWORTH PLACE
BESIDE FELLOWSHIP SQUARE - the Town Hall site in Forest Road!!
I think the names are a new sort art form thats reflects the rash of new architecture spreading across the borough . Nothing to be proud of but sign of the Times.
