A 15-storey tall women-only tower block which has been proposed to be built in west London would turn the area into a 'concrete jungle', locals have warned. 📲 Full story:
The housing association wants to build the tower in place of Brook House - a five-storey block containing "low-quality" flats.
The application on Ealing Council's website has had 48 people oppose it, while nine have voiced support for the plans. Meanwhile, a supporter said: "I am aware that life circumstances can change in an instant, so the plan to offer 100 women renewed lives has to be good. This project has my wholehearted support."Mill Hill Park Residents' Association has also voiced concerns about the proposals.
Tracy Downie, chief executive of Women's Pioneer Housing, said "providing more good-quality, affordable homes for women is critically important, particularly during this cost-of-living and energy crisis".
