Totally out of place in that area like all these blocks are. Give it five years and it'll be a drug dealers paradise.

They've got these sort of places in Cambridge. One allocated car parking space which means they don't expect you to have any visitors

I fucking hate architecture like that. Pristine shiny blocks with absolutely no reference to the history or traditional style of the area. I mean I know there would have previously been a sports stadium there but how the fuck is that anything like in the right place compared to the surrounding area, or indeed anything over 50 years old in London?
Brutalism or bricks over that cladded shite any day.

the irony is that the only thing that made it 'thriving' has now moved to another part of London that was already 'thriving'.

Not much there in the way of gardens. They may as well call it Upton Beach View.

"Images may include optional upgrades at an additional cost"
The Devil's in the detail. Those extras probably include things like balconies and windows.

First step in the no-doubt intended 'gentrification' of the area.
Bet the developers will win ultimately and we will not recognize the area in 10 years once the prices have really gone up and the current inhabitants have been driven out.

Sven ... Like but think The Last Resort is more appropriate ....
Some rich man came and raped the land, nobody caught 'em,
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes and, Jesus, people bought 'em
And they called it paradise, the place to be,
They watched the hazy sun sinking in the sea

Anyone know anything about this ending up with Barret as I thought the club sold to Galliard? They also made a point about it not going to highest bidder but the one that had the best vision for the community.

Fast links into central London, they say...
I thought the shit transport links from Upton Park were one of the main reasons we had to move to that sterile shithole in Stratford?
