In January and February 2013 the Council held four project workshops assisted by architects Pollard Thomas Edwards architects (PTEa) to develop the thinking so far. These workshops flagged up a number of constraints and challenges for the project.
Constraints included:
- The railway track
- London Underground tunnels running under the site
- London Underground substation
- Angela Davis depot
- Locally listed building and mural
We will outline the specific issues in six sections along the Somerleyton Road site, south to north:
- Angela Davis depot
- Somerleyton Road passage
- Transport for London substation
- Housing
- Theatre site
- Carlton mansions and nuclear dawn mural
We will provide an overview of the discussions that have taken place around them and finish by giving the Council’s preferred option. You can comment directly on these pages.
