This NIMBYism is getting borderline histrionic. The plan was compliant per officer recommendations and the current assets are entirely obsolete.
My take from the article is the Ironmongers’ Company were negotiating a deal with the developers and objected to some of the proposals. The deal was improved and they are now OK with the proposal, the results of which are in the article.
Isn’t that how all negotiations work?
The city of London isn’t even a London council, it’s literally its own county. Can MyLondon get anything right?
Oh no! They’re knocking down the incredibly historic hall…
… from the 1970s…
The old Museum of London building looked grim anyway. It wasn’t exactly some kind of beautiful example of classical architecture. What do these campaigners think was going to happen to the site?
