Ballymore has secured planning permission for just over 1,600 new homes for a wedge-shaped development near West Silvertown DLR station. The light industrial site runs in a narrow wedge to the Thames and sits alongside Lyle Park, which will receive a £1 million improvement funded by the developer. That will see the park significantly revamped and made more accessible to the two housing developments on either side.

€10.3 million has been earmarked for renovations, energy-efficiency improvements, security upgrades and more for the existing civic offices on Wood Quay, despite plans to demolish the complex.

Coun. Josh Matlow expressed concerns about the potential impact of the airport expansion on housing supply, stating, 'If we need smaller buildings on the islands, what will the ability be to actually create these affordable housing projects?'

"Too often new developments don't come with the services and infrastructure they need. Our policy would get new or expanded GP surgeries up and running to serve new developments, right from the moment the first homes are sold."

The changes will see 87 apartments built across three blocks as part of Phase Five of the development, instead of 20 townhouses developer Qatari Diar originally asked for.

Galliard Homes reduced the amount of affordable housing in the project's housing stock from 35 per cent to just 10 per cent, citing increased construction costs and changing building regulations as key factors.

The last Rienda release concentrates on three all-age neighborhoods scheduled to grand open in fall 2026: Sunflower by Trumark Homes, Indigo by Lennar, and Primrose by Shea Homes, each offering a range of family-oriented home designs.

"What's the consequences if we allow 800 residents to be in a severe fire with no evacuation routes? We're being asked to choose between two really bad options."

"People are choosing Westchester - not just to visit, but to live, build families, and invest in their future. When we create housing opportunities and vibrant neighborhoods, people come - and they stay."

Reorganisation presents a once-in-a-generation chance to make sure our councils match the modern realities of our places, making sure outdated boundaries are not constraining growth, particularly in our towns and cities.

Campaigner Aysha Hawcutt stated that residents were 'not anti-homes', but believed the Adlington plan was 'the wrong proposal in the wrong place'. She expressed pride in the community's resilience against the development threats.

Developer Michael O'Flynn stated that there is 'huge concern' in the construction industry regarding potential inflated prices on supplies due to the global turmoil caused by the war.

UCLA's research indicates that if the area surrounding a transit stop is included in the definition, it could add more than 1.3 million acres of land statewide where housing bonuses would apply, nearly tripling the amount of land currently eligible.

The food is excellent. I'm very disappointed and sad to hear they might be closing down. It's heartbreaking. But there's nothing we can do about it. We need to find a new location. But everything is kind of expensive because of inflation.

The president was very enthusiastic about this idea, very enthusiastic. The plan would be one of the biggest federal investments in housing in 50 years if it comes to fruition. Mamdani's team presented Trump with a custom fake front page of the New York Daily News reading Trump to City: Let's Build and Backs New Era of Housing, referencing the famous 1975 front page where President Ford rejected New York's bailout request.

Cedar Street just came out victorious in a multi-year saga with the city of La Canada Flintridge, winning the first successful builder's remedy case in California Superior Court for its 80-unit mixed-use project at 600 Foothill Boulevard and setting a path for other developers to build. But the fight may have left its scars, in time, stress and now soured relationships with some officials.

Law, who grew up in Blackheath and went to nearby John Ball Primary School, said the plans were not the answer to London's growing housing crisis. He said: My junior school was across from the site where this proposed development will take place. This plan does not answer housing needs. Instead this plan will enforce a strain on a wonderful old village that deserves our protection.
