Covent Garden London
The heart of London's West End
Martlett Court Housing Co-operative
This year the Co-operative office has been refurbished and now provides a much-improved environment for staff and visitors. The Co-operative also has a new co-ordinator and book-keeper. This means that, with our caretaker, we have a friendly and excellent team of staff.
Concerning further developments, the Co-operative has been successful in its planning application to develop the unused playground on the estate into a garden area. Some work has begun and it is hoped that further works will begin shortly. The completion of this garden will be an important achievement for the Co-operative as all residents will benefit. The project will enhance the look and feel of the whole estate. It is also hoped that the garden will provide an area where residents can meet informally and so help to develop the community as a whole.
A special vote of thanks must go to the CGCA in being instrumental in helping the residents of our estate with regards to the Bow Street Police Station redevelopment. There have been certain anxieties expressed by residents about the proposals. In three recent meetings with the developers, facilitated by the Association, many issues have now successfully been resolved.
As always there is so much more that I could say, but the main point is that Martlett Court continues to thrive.
