| I am sorry Mark but LBH are culpable on this. AFAIK, the reloaction and redevelopment of Waterman's on the old Brentford Police Station site was inextricably linked to the redevlopment of the old Waterman's/Max Factor site. All that LBH has achieved by releasing the developer from the condition to redevelop is release the funds from the sale of the freehold on the old site. There is no guarantee that a new centre of any form will be built as a result of this action. As to "blocking riverside access" that was the whole point of the location which was meant to stage riverside exhibitions and events but only (very) rarely did so. The easy answer would be to leave the sites extant until a developer willing to meet their obligations could be found. |
