Geography

The site is located west of Shopping City in Wood Green. The aim of the development is "to create a vibrant and attractive new urban quarter which acts as the civic and cultural Heart of Haringey, integrating with and benefiting wider communities." [1]

The newly named Heartlands will centre on the new Clarendon Square and spine road (to be named Mary Neuner Road, after the former mayor of the borough), [2] [3] based around Brook Road, Clarendon Road and Western Road. It will be the site for 1,300–1,500 new homes, [4] as well as small business space, a 20-storey tower, and open spaces and play areas.

History

Public consultation on the site commenced in 2003 and a draft development plan was drawn up in 2005. [5] A £4.6m government grant to Transport for London and Haringey London Borough Council [6] meant that civil engineering started on the spine road through the site in Spring 2008, and was completed by October 2009.
