Planning Applications for Shoreditch CAAC meeting for March 2021

2021/0406 G F I House, 9 Hewett Street, EC2A 3RP Demolition of existing office building and erection of new office building of 8 storeys (plus basement) with roof plant enclosure and erection of building for use as a hotel and associated restaurant facilities of 12 storeys (plus basement) with roof plant enclosure, public realm and other associated works (note for consultation: This is a re submission of application 2020/2315 due to the cyber attack on the Councils IT systems. Neighbour comments submitted in connection with application 2020/2315 cannot be considered, and will need to be resubmitted). Full Planning Permission (Steve Fraser-Lim)

Objection. The CAAC acknowledges that this part of the Conservation Area is mixed in character with a variety of building types and scales, including a number of emerging and consented tall buildings. However, the application site represents the missing element of the Great Eastern St - Hewett St - Curtain Road block which should be taken as the context for the development. The form and scale of the Great Eastern St element has no relationship with this context and reads as an uncomfortable insertion into the streetscape. As such the SCAAC objects to this application as it would have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of this part of the Conservation Area even taking into account the mixed and changing nature of the area.

2021/0222 Former, 115 Worship Street, EC2A 2BA Installation of 10 x internally illuminated sculptures for a temporary period between 29th January 2021 to 28th February 2021. Full Planning Permission (Danny Huber)

2021/0561 Land South West Of Great Eastern Street Great Eastern Street, EC2A Variation of conditions 2 (Scale parameters), 3 (length of temporary permission) and 4 (Visitor Management Strategy) attached to planning permission 2018/3078 dated 07/12/2018 for temporary change of use to outdoor food market (sui generis use) and erection of associated structures. Effect of variation would be to extend the period the development can operate until 05/08/2024, allow for changes to market structures and implement a revised visitor management strategy. Removal/Variation of Condition(s) (Gerard Livett)

No objection but the SCAAC notes that the description of the proposed land use as temporary is misleading, that interior changes are of low quality design and that there are errors in the description ( eg the site is not adjacent to the Conservation Area but within it).
