Enfield Council has approved additional plans allowing for 322 more homes in the Alma Estate regeneration, raising the total project tally to 1,402. While the plan demolishes shops on South Street, it assures the provision of equal retail space. The project also includes 444 affordable housing units, with a mix of social rent and shared ownership. However, the development's increased building heights have drawn criticism for impacting the Ponders End Flour Mill Conservation Area, even as officials deem the overall negative impacts minimal compared to the benefits.
The total number of homes planned for the Alma Estate has reached 1,402, significantly higher than the original 401 homes approved in 2017.
The increase in block heights by six storeys has raised visibility concerns for the nearby Ponders End Flour Mill Conservation Area, affecting its picturesque view.
