Blackheath business estate: London Mayor won't intervene

Blackheath Business Estate Plans
The Mayor of London has declined to intervene in plans for a controversial development in Blackheath.
GS8 and Vabel plan to demolish all business units in the Blackheath Business Estate to build 63 flats in two blocks of nine and seven storeys, along with a four-storey workspace building.
Lewisham’s strategic planning committee approved their planning application in December by four votes to four with a casting vote from the chair.
The development will see 36 mature trees with a value of £124,447 cut down.
The trees will be replaced by a large wall that will cut off light from a row of homes where vulnerable and disabled people live.

'Bristol City Council needs to retain trees rather than fell them'

By Vassili Papastavrou, Friday Feb 19, 2021
Another important tree is threatened with felling, and in response, the “Save the Ashley Down Oak” protest group has been formed. There is a platform in the tree and concerned residents are promising to occupy it for as long as needed.
The failure to consult over the management of urban trees has once again meant that Bristol City Council is like a rabbit in the headlights, unaware that local people care so much about trees.
Yet, all around the city, this is happening again and again as trees are being removed for a variety of reasons without any genuine consultation on options.

Letters on housing versus trees and LTNs | Islington Gazette

Meg Howarth, Islington, full address supplied, writes:
Islington council’s claim that further environmental destruction at Highbury Corner is a price worth paying for a maximum of an additional 25 council homes on the existing Dixon Clark Court (DCC) estate - not 27 as spun by the town hall - is both absurd and misleading - but good to see that at least the High Court judges got the figure right (Judge permits Islington Council to evict eco-warriors).
Unlike the other major geographical junctions in the borough - Angel and Archway - the DCC green screen of trees provides a public-realm service not only to the estate’s residents but also to passers-by. Trees and green aren’t only about environment and climate protection but also public health - physical and mental. With Right to Buy (RtB) income from the sale of some of the additional properties factored into the financial viability of the proposed development, on one estimate in the planning officer’s report as few as 15 additional social homes might remain in a few years time. How can it make sense to destroy the Canonbury Road “little forest” of 53-year-old trees for such little gain? How is 15, or even 25 extra council homes, going to make a real difference to the 14,000-long council waiting-list?
