Hi everyone,



Does anyone know whats happening with the Concrete House on L Lane? I know its being managed by Hexagon as affordable apartments... I believe some sort of shared ownership scheme. I think this is brilliant - so needed in London, and it was such a pleasure to see the place restored to glory.


However - its still empty, and has been since the refurb was finished.... I was hoping for there to be new tenants and see activity in that place for the first time in so many years... but its still empty. Anyone know why?


Cheer!

    • It’s even worse this weekend, the bass is unbearable.    The fact SE22 is getting upset about something in an entirely different Borough probably suggests how bloody loud it is that we can still hear it from here!? It must be awful for those living right next to it as I feel stressed enough from half an hour away. I don’t see any benefit to the local community, it blocks off our green spaces, makes it deeply unpleasant to be at home every weekend, and most attending will be from outside of the area. I also wonder if these events are the reason there are so many dead fish currently bobbing around the lake in brockwell park? Pretty miserable for the local wildlife too.
