PP2 Dalston

Strategic Principles

Where appropriate development should:

  • Implement a variety of public realm improvements across the town centre particularly along Kingsland High Street, Dalston Lane and Ridley Road.
  • Improve permeability through finer grain development within the town centre, particularly through new proposals for Kingsland Shopping Centre.
  • Improve noise and air quality by creating a pedestrian and cycle-friendly environment across the town centre.
  • Protect existing open spaces including the Dalston Eastern Curve Garden and maximise opportunities to create new public space
  • Reinforce the individual qualities of the distinct urban character areas and heritage assets in Dalston town centre.
  • Protect and enhance the value of the Dalston Quarter as a concentrated area of community, creative and cultural activities.
  • Improve public transport accessibility through the potential arrival of Crossrail 2.
