Since 1977, the Spitalfields Trust has fought to protect the buildings and culture of Spitalfields from exploitative development. Ours is a vision which respects history and architectural precedent. We welcome development that responds to local needs and is sympathetic in scale and form to the existing historic environment.
The Trust is disappointed that the family who own the Old Truman Brewery want to build an ugly shopping mall with four floors of corporate offices on top at the corner of Woodseer Street and Brick Lane.
Instead of this arbitrary proposal, we are seeking a conversation about the future of the whole brewery – with input from the widest number of people – to create a plan for the entire site that reflects the needs and wishes of residents.
