Haringey Council has approved a 20-year vision for the future of Tottenham that could see transformed into a Docklands-style wharf.
This could be the new look of Tottenham Hale after the plans were agreed by the council’s cabinet last week. They envisage new schools, a larger transport hub and more homes.
There is also provision for better healthcare and a large number of shops.
Councillor Alan Strickland, cabinet member for regeneration, said: “We’re committed to the long-term regeneration of Tottenham, but it is vital that this is about more than just new bricks and mortar.
“I want to thank the thousands of residents who have had their say on Tottenham’s future during the last five months – their ambitions are at the heart of all our regeneration plans.
“It’s clear that high-quality housing, more jobs and training, and better public transport are among their priorities – but residents have been frank about other things that we need to do better.
“Tottenham was the last great London suburb built in the 19th Century. Together, we can make sure it is one of the 21st Century London’s best places to live, work and visit.”
