The proposed development is grossly intrusive and would detract from the heritage value, amenity value and tourist appeal of the site. I state this as a local resident for many years, a teacher , an archaeologist of Georgian industrial remains and someone who has worked on world heritage sites.

Why is the fire route still unresolved? This development damages the sense of the historic canal; the overhanging balconies are very intrusive over the public pathway and contribute to changing this historic waterway junction into merely a suburban housing estate.

The canal entrance to Ducketts, off the Regents canal, has a charm so that it would be a great loss if new buildings did not enhance it.

As this is a junction of two old canals, two canals will be blighted and Tower Hamlets - and London - will lose an historic and unique space. It should be protected. Why not utilise the existing buildings, instead of demolishing and overdeveloping here, just for a few people's profit? Why should Tower Hamlets Council allow these developers to go ahead and despoil the area when the scheme has already been rejected three times by the Planning Inspectorate? Also when nearby residents have opposed this from the beginning?

The builidngs should be set back so that the footpath can be maintained comfortably for pedestrians and clycists and prams and wheelchairs and dog walkers and for boats to tie up etc. The existing historic paving should be maintained so that the footpath is distinct from the proposed piazza.

The bridge over the Hertford Union canal and the steep path accessing it are characteristic features of the Regent Canal's history and must be preserved, as must the views of the lock and the Herford Union beyond it.

Any aggressive attacks on locally listed industrial buildings and East End of London heritage should be robustly defended.

In the borough with such limited number of recreational areas and a massive increase in the number of residents in recent years the development like this should not even be allowed for a primary consideration.

Buildings at a height of 4-6 storeys will affect the views for existing residents.

Regent’s Canal, Victoria Park and Wennington Green are also widely used by local residents for recreation. This area has already experienced extensive development and a new development will be a further disturbance to local residents.

If a development of this size goes ahead, the noise, dirt and the need to clear yet more trees, flora, etc. will all have a negative impact on local wildlife. This would also spoil the experience for visitors to this stretch of ‘urban countryside’, which is one of the most scenic parts of our borough.

This is a designated conservation area, and I hope Tower Hamlets Council will choose to keep it that way.

Our water pressure is non existent and we have been told these tall developments near by are to blame. Also I personally am proud of east London,s industrial heritage and think it is a shame we can't preserve these buildings, as they are. It is actually a very charming area as is. And I fully agree that part of what makes regents canal so charming is the greenery... Imposing buildings directly abutting the canal would completely destroy this.

To even consider demolishing a building like the 3 storied ex-warehouse on Bow Wharf would rip the heart out of the area. It's one of the last buildings around there reflecting the heritage of the culture that existed around the canal network.
Also, on a personal level, I would lose 90% of my sunlight if this scheme was to progress, being in a ground floor flat directly across the Hertford Canal.
