Say hello to Barratt Homes' 'Brixton Square' on Coldharbour Lane (old Cooltan site)

Do you live there then?? I can read perfectly well,I wasn't made aware at any stage via the hub team that 4 Bedroom properties were being given to affordable rent.I was fully aware there were going to be affordable rent accommodation but nobody was made aware of the size of these properties that were being allocated for this purpose.I don't think that BS suits large families With loads of children and teenagers.Its highly likely that they will be bringing all their friends in too.It will ruin this as a nice place to live especially after how much these places cost.Next summer in the courtyard should prove very interesting!
please tell me why you moved to the area then, if you cant stand local people?

I was going to reply to this post but I can see it might be interpreted as a threat. Just be careful out there folks.

Yes I do live there, which is why I can categorically say that the plans were clearly marked - but would you really have based your decision of buying a flat on the size of the affordable accommodation?

Furthermore, do you know any of these "huge families" moving in loads of kids and teenagers? You sound a just a little ridiculous. You sound like a religious Daily Mail reader.

The courtyard consists of a pathway and some trees - is it not a bit silly to get your panties in a bunch over future fictional families and what they may get up to?
 
Rereading the comments it seems it’s the children of said flats that is the problem? Do you think all the owners of the new 2/3 bed flats on the upper floors have been vetted so that no children are allowed in them? Of course there will be children, just like every other blo*dy street and development in the area and wider London! I honestly hope this is someone just trolling the link as yet again one idiot (who alleges to be in the development) gets every other resident tarnished with the same brush. And also of note when you tarnish the affordable rented element with your comments, I note you’ve gone through the HUB which is the shared ownership element and essentially a subsidised aspect of the overall ‘affordable’ (or not) housing package for the scheme. Those in glass houses……….

Oh my I was thinking the SAME exact thing. This person simply cannot be serious. Where can you possibly find a flat development, or even street in London where there are no kids allowed? I noticed the hub aspect as well, but didn't want to speculate. I actually feel sorry for the families having to live next to a neighbour like that...
 
God, this reminds me of the letter my dad got when he was a local councillor, with a local complaining about council housing being built on his street because 'some households on this road have two BMWs'. I think my dad's response was to reply saying this was the most risible letter he'd seen in nearly two decades on the council.
 
I am pretty worried about the huge 4 bedroom flats that they have reserved for the council at BS.These are large 4 bed properties which are on the ground floor and incorporate the basement on a split level.I can see huge families going into these and it only takes one to spoil the whole complex for everyone.Im sure those who have already purchased or are about to don't know the full extent of the properties that have been reserved for the council.It was never mentioned at any time that these 4 bedroom apartments of which there are a considerable number on the ground floor would be going to the council.Its funny that the rest of the block has been completed and these have been left till last,too late for all those people have completed on their apartments and taken on huge mortgages.Im seriously having second thoughts now about living here now,I can see trouble ahead!

With social fears like yours, I pity any poor bastard who ends up living next door to you, you dog-fucking Pooterish arsewipe.
 
It's obvious that people such as stranger Danger who already live in BS have no idea of what goes on in the real world and think the world is nice and rosey,I have lived in Brixton all my life and know far more about the area and what happens in it than 90% of the deluded left wing do gooders on here.Rip down the gates and let the community in just about sums up the calibre of people on this site!
 
I looked at the plans,but it was never made clear that the biggest apartments that were in BS were going to be Affordable rent Accommodation.I do know what I'm talking about and you will see when all the huge families start moving in with loads of children and the whole place starts going down the pan,maybe you should wake up and smell the coffee!!

It was made perfectly clear early enough that people on this site knew there'd be an "affordable" element even before Barratts did the groundwork and footings for the site, you muppet.

Same old shit from a shitcunt, whining about do-gooder lefties rather than addressing the point, and implying that you live in "the real world", when you're actually living up your own arse.

As for the "I've lived in Brixton all my life" schtick, big fucking deal. So have many of us, and your claim to know a lot about the area is meaningless - a lot measured against what? The fact that you're a two-bob cunt?
 
Im not saying that am I you clown! I was aware of that already! I wasn't aware that they were 4 bedroom apartments for big families!!Thats the whole point of what I was saying maybe you missed it

I'm saying that if you'd bothered to pull your head out of your arse, you'd have known exactly that the council and Barratts had agreed on the disposition of properties before the groundwork was done, and that even people who bought "off book" before the building started would either have been informed, or could have found out by enquiring.
As a local, did you attend Dick Shithead by any chance? It'd explain your thinking difficulties.
 
Same old shit from a shitcunt! Just about sums up what a complete uneducated retard you are doesn't it!

That's Mr. Educated non-Retard to you. My university would probably be a bit upset to think I'd got an undergraduate and a post-graduate degree, and still remained entirely uneducated.
So, not so much "uneducated" (nor "retarded"), as abusive of fuckwits such as yourself, wouldn't you say, Mr. Fuckwit?
 
I think it's people, especially people who have children, rather than local people.

Well, people who require "affordable" housing, anyway.
The icing on this cunt's cake is that given that "affordability" is entirely relative, the "sort of people" who'll be in those "affordable" units will be those who can afford 80% of market rates, rather than those that can afford social hosing rates. In other words, their fears are very unlikely to be realised, and if they had half of a clue, they could have worked that out for themselves.

Yeah I have NO clue what happens in the real world *rolls eyes*. I will say thanks though, because I do take the "lefty do gooder" label as a compliment, however I do think the deluded part applies to your more than anyone else.

But surely it's obvious to you that these members of the lower orders will have caravans parked up in the courtyard within days of arrival, with "devil dogs" running around, and scrap metal piled up against the walls? ;)

I think that Bandit78 may have a case of tertiary syphilis.

There's not a lot that can be done once it starts eating into the brain. Delusion is unavoidable.

2 Beemers? Pfft, that resident was holding themselves to a low standard!
Got to be north of the river! :p

Sell your flat then, you should make a decent return.
