PP6 Hackney Wick

Strategic Principles

Where appropriate development should:

  • Improve the unique mix of warehouse units that are key to the thriving creative economy of Hackney Wick.
  • Preserve and deliver new affordable workspace and affordable housing in perpetuity.
  • Improve connections east to the rest of Hackney.
  • Improve the access roads into Hackney Wick from the west.
  • Maintain the heritage and character of buildings.
  • Maintain the functionally important buildings which provide low-cost workspace and resist their conversion to other uses.
  • Improve connections to Stratford and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
  • Create a new ‘high street’ of commercial uses to support Hackney Wick’s residential and working population.
  • Improve connections south to the Canal and Fish Island.
