Harriott, Apsley, Pattison Houses - Newsletter December 2022

This year has been one of change in Tower Hamlets with the election of a new Mayor and administration which brought some new councillors and Cabinet members on board who are also keen to deliver much needed new housing in the borough. It may not feel like there has been a lot going on, but behind the scenes the team has been progressing towards securing full planning approval, bringing the newly elected Mayor up to date on scheme progress and considering alternative designs for the mosque and community centre.

Residents Panel

The Residents’ Panel has remained engaged throughout the past year, with meetings in January, May, June, September and November. They have worked hard on behalf of residents by providing useful feedback to the project team on communications with the community as well as informing officers of feelings on the estate during the ups and downs of the last year. The project team heard from the Panel about their concerns regarding the recent delay to securing planning permission and officers are pushing hard to see this confirmed in the early part of 2023.

Looking ahead to 2023

Leaseholders will be contacted in January to announce the launch of the buy-back package in February and the commencement of voluntary negotiations to acquire homes on the estate, particularly for those not wishing/eligible to take-up one of the new homes to be built. An external valuer is currently being appointed and this process is expected to be finished in January 2023; this will enable individual meetings to start with leaseholders on the valuation of their properties. For further background information on the rehousing/buy-back programme please see the ‘Key Documents’ section of the scheme’s webpage using the link below. We will be writing to you closer to the time to confirm the start of the buy-back programme and providing full details.

Upon confirmation of the planning decision in 2023, the project will move into another new phase, when we will be able to launch the rehousing programme for secure tenants. Decant status has already been approved in principle by the Common Housing Register Forum and will go live once all planning approvals are agreed between the Council and the Greater London Authority (GLA). Once the council has the seal of approval from the GLA, colleagues in the Housing Options Team will start their liaison with tenants to discuss individual decant options.


Planning Application

The Council’s Development Committee passed a resolution to award planning consent for regeneration to proceed on 21st March 2022, subject to confirmation by Greater London Authority (GLA).

The planning reference for this application is PA/21/02703 should you wish to view the planning application and associated documents on the council's planning portal.

  • Why does the Council need to build more homes?

    Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

    The average cost of renting a flat in Tower Hamlets is now more than the average household income. There are already more than 19,000 households on the housing register in need of an affordable home and more than 2,000 households are living in temporary accommodation. Although more new homes were built in Tower Hamlets in 2018 than anywhere else in the UK, the average price is now 22 times the average salary, so our residents often can’t afford to buy them.

    In response, the council has committed to delivering 2,000 new council homes. These genuinely affordable homes will include properties big enough for families. One in ten will be wheelchair accessible.

    At just eight square miles, space to build in Tower Hamlets is in short supply. We’re making the most of land that we already own, including buildings no longer used as they once were.

    But that isn’t enough. We also need to look closely at whether there is room for us to increase the number of homes on existing estates.

    We can do this by finding ‘infill sites’ or gaps on estates where new buildings can go. We’re also looking carefully to see if we can redevelop existing estates to replace older buildings with ones that are modern, better designed and crucially, that provide more council homes for our residents.

    We have looked closely at all the estates across the borough to identify where there is the best opportunity to increase the amount of council housing. We found that not only does the area around Harriott, Apsley and Pattison (HAP) Houses have room to accommodate new homes, there will be space for a new mosque and improved open spaces.

    The council is committed to providing high quality, well designed homes and surroundings to create healthy and sustainable environments where people want to live. We will deliver a mix of home sizes to meet the local housing need, with a combination of flats and duplexes and a mix of tenures for families with children and for small and single person households.

    Landscaped spaces will include trees, planting, grassed areas and children’s play areas. Biodiversity will be key in planning planting, buildings will be laid out to maximise daylight and sunlight, while homes will be energy efficient. Developments will be well connected, with safe and active streets designed to reduce antisocial behaviour. We will enhance and continue to build a strong sense of community and belonging in any development.
