Skyscraper should go back to the drawing board

Thu 8th Nov 2007

Commenting on the news that the government's architecture watchdog CABE has released a strongly critical report on the proposed development on the Arcadia site, local Lib Dem councillor and campaigner Jon Ball said, "Local opposition to the Ealing skyscraper scheme has been unprecedented, and with a government-funded body such as CABE now adding to the chorus of criticism, it is time for the developers to go back to the drawing board and not come back until they have a scheme that is suitable for Ealing. The current proposal is clearly unacceptable both to the local community and to design experts, and I challenge Glenkerrin to recognise that by withdrawing it immediately."
