Gillett Square chosen by London's Mayor

Ken Livingstone Mayor of London and Lord Richard Rogers are about to launch a programme (100 Spaces for London) to update and create better public-spaces across London. On 11th July they will launch ten pilot-projects. Gillett Square has been selected to be one of the first ten.

gillettplans:
Others include: Brixton Central Square, Lower Marsh near Waterloo and Sloane Square. Groundwork Hackney have been working with the Gillett Square Partnership which includes the "London Borough of Hackney", Hackney Co-operative Developments and a private developer to create a new integrated development in Dalston which will include an exemplary public-space, a new gallery and workspace-building and hopefully a new library in the town-centre. The project is now well-progressed with the first phases due to start by the end of the summer.
