Abstract

The intended programme is to at least double commercial and residential density, while maintaining diversity in use and building form, enhancing the existing low rise, fine grain built environment and aligning with the area's 'sense of place'. The programme supports the trend towards small businesses in design, film and food industries, but it is anticipated that new and existing buildings will adapt to different uses over time.
