Urban Island amidst a changing landscape

Walked down Three Mills to the Old Mill House lately on your shopping trip to Tesco's? If you were curious and made it up the tow path to Stratford High Street, you may have been surprised at the closeness and unmistakable landmark of the Olympic Stadium and Park.

The landscape is changing at a phenomal pace as the Olympics drive investors and developments around the park. Anyone taking any time lapse photography out there?

Tesco, Inter Ikea  and Southern Housing: Change is coming!

Tesco have recently won a significant development plan to transform the area adjacent to the A12 by Bromley by Bow tube station and now Ikea Inter have snapped up the derelict zone in between Stratford High Street and Urban Island.

The final piece of the development jigsaw, North of Three Mills Lane and Stratford High Street adjacent to the A12 south is understood to be going to Southern Housing group to cement the new Tesco community development project.

Do you like the old warehouse feel of Three Mills? Happy to see if transformed? We would love to hear your views.

Lea River Park update

 Lea Valley Park? Nope it is not! – it’s definitely the Lea RIVER Park.

You might have noticed a lot of changes going on around the Olympic site lately - The Lea River Park is set to be the final link in a chain of green space along the extensive waterways of the Lea Valley.

Extending from just south of the Olympic Park, following the River Lea through Three Mills Green, Bromley by Bow, the Aberfeldy Estate in Poplar, Canning Town and reaching the Thames at East India Dock Basin.
