Islington's Market regeneration applauded

Islington's Market regeneration applauded 17 December 2008 The first phase of the redevelopment of the Market Estate has won the 2007/08 Design Award given by Southern Housing Group's Design Panel from a short-list of brand-new housing schemes across southern England. The accolade coincides with the completion of the second phase of the rejuvenation of Caledonian Park which is adjacent to the Market. These changes include a new park entrance, the planting of around 100 new trees and the completion of extensive drainage works to the Great Lawn.Picture of Market Estate showing clock towerThe clock's ticking: The iconic Clock Tower within Caledonian Park oversees the regeneration of the Market Estate; the winner of this year's Southern Housing Group Design Award.The project is a superb example of the successful redevelopment of a former run-down inner city estate where the residents have been fully involved in the process of the design and the delivery of their new homes.

David Kelly to Councillor Terry Stacy

(f) David Kelly to Councillor Terry Stacy, Executive Member for Housing and Community Safety Caledonian Park is again going through one of those phases where the anti-social behaviour is seriously increasing. I am concerned about sex workers, park drinkers and drug dealers using the park. What is Islington Council doing to move along the regeneration of Caledonian Park and make it a safe green space for the local community?

2008 2nd November 02-11-2008 17-21-57 Originally uploaded by caledonianpark Islington Tribune - by ROISIN GADELRAB Published: 31 October 2008 Petition on prostitutes sparks row A ROW has broken out over how to tackle increased prostitution in the York Way estate. Labour presented a petition to the council bearing more than 100 names calling for a dispersal zone, but the Lib Dems and the police have decided to collect more evidence before deciding if this is necessary. Brenda Kyriachou, chairwoman of the York Way estate, said: “We’ve got prostitutes walking up and down Market Road at all times of the day and night. It’s getting worse – something needs to be done now.” Labour councillor Paul Smith, said: “I’m really disgusted. We presented a petition signed by over 100 people from the York Way estate saying they wanted a dispersal zone. “They’re extremely anxious about it. Crime chief councillor Terry Stacy said: “We’re not saying a dispersal zone is ruled out. People have to unders

2008 2nd November 02-11-2008 17-21-53 Originally uploaded by caledonianpark 'Council worker's park encounter with prostitute' nlnews@archant.co.uk 30 October 2008 A MAN who appeared to be an Islington Council worker brazenly chatted up a prostitute in his van at 8.45am - then followed her into a park, it was said this week. The employee, who was wearing the distinctive green Islington Council overalls at the time, left his colleague reading in the van. The scene was played out last Friday in front of a horrified grandmother who was waiting at a bus stop opposite Caledonian Park, in Market Road, Holloway - Islington's main prostitution hotspot. Speaking exclusively to the Gazette, the 55-year-old, who lives in Penfields House, on the York Way Estate, but asked not to be named, said: "I honestly could not believe what I was seeing. "I was standing next to the football pitches waiting to get the 274 bus to Camden Town when this Islington Council van pulled u

More than 100 people living on the York Way Estate, off Market Road, Holloway, signed a petition backing plans to introduce a dispersal order to disrupt vice activity on their doorsteps. Councillor Paul Smith, who represents Holloway ward, raised the issue with Islington Council and was told the executive would discuss it at the next meeting on November 20 - but instead the meeting has been cancelled on the grounds that there is "not enough business" to justify it. Councillor Smith said: "This is outrageous. The council has a duty to act swiftly on issues of crime and anti-social behaviour and yet the executive can't be bothered
