Clapton Park

In Clapton Park we’re making the most of underused council land at 5 locations.

At Daubeney Road and Mandeville Street, we have replaced unwanted eyesores and underused space to build 22 much-needed new homes. 18 of the new homes are for social rent or shared ownership.

We’re replacing the old boiler house on Pedro Street and the garages at Nye Bevan Estate and Blackwell Close to create new homes and make improvements to the estate.

 

Mandeville Street

At Mandeville Street, we have transformed empty garages into 11 new homes, including:

  • five social rent homes for local residents in housing need
  • six homes for shared ownership for people living or working in Hackney who can’t afford to buy outright but won’t be prioritised for social housing

We’ve rethought the street to link the neighbourhood with surrounding areas. This change makes the previously dark passage feel safer, open and greener. The new mews provides better access for cyclists and pedestrians. It also includes new trees, landscaping and planting to create a welcoming environment.

Daubeney Road

At Daubeney Road, we have transformed an underused carpark into 11 new homes, including:

  • seven social rent homes for local residents in housing need
  • four sold outright to help pay for the project in the absence of enough government funding

Our in-house sales team, Hackney Sales, have sold and marketed the outright sale homes to local residents.

Our plans for Daubeney Road include, soft landscaping throughout, trees and a clear link between Redwald Road.

Pedro Street

There have been some delays with the project due to the clean up operation taking longer than expected. We have completed the clean up and we are regularly monitoring the ground.

We will be sure to keep local residents updated when we start ground-up construction.

Nye Bevan Estate garages

In summer 2022, we talked with local residents about a proposal to replace garages on the estate with new council homes. Since then, our cabinet has given us the go-ahead to work with a design team and residents to develop plans for these new homes on the estate.

Blackwell Close garages
