Construction to begin on two schemes for Hackney Council worth a combined total of around £97.5m

 

The scheme will deliver a new Leisure Centre and public area improvements, this could be extremely beneficial for the local community! This is apparently the first phase of Hackney Council’s programme to replace an outdated leisure centre with new facilities and hundreds of new homes, including those for genuinely affordable social rent and shared ownership. Meaning occupants can partly buy the property and rent the remaining amount.
