All our reports are open to community review to ensure they are representative, please do take a look and let us know if you have any comments.

The feedback presented in this report has been shared and discussed directly with British Land and the design team to help inform the next stages of design development.

Do we really want this, a built up Canada Water?

A shocking and sad representation to see how built up and densely packed (and populated) Canada Water will look like once British Land and the council get the go ahead.

There are at least five 50 storey landmark towers and many more 40, 30 and 20 storey blocks proposed for a low rise housing area. Very little open space and definitely NO new schools or health services.
Please sign the petition if you disapprove and want what was promised 10 years ago..

Please sign the petition before the 28th June. We need 500 signatures to be heard in the cabinet.
