Much as I agree with the sentiments about trying to keep High Streets full of independent stores, it

Access to the hotel will be from Coldharbour best deals to travel to europe Lane via stairs and a lift from street level up to the main lobby, while the current ground-floor H M and T-Mobile businesses will be unaffected by the development.
Ready and willing to start spouting best deals to travel to europe estate best deals to travel to europe agent blather at the drop of a hat, the architects Boyes Rees Architects (working on behalf of Crown Properties best deals to travel to europe Ltd) have insisted that the hotel s design will manage to "harness the vibrancy of Brixton" as well as be sympathetic to the Art Deco façade of the old 1935 Woolies building  (see: Then and Now photos, 1930 and 2003 ).
Posting on the urban75 boards, a local resident voiced concerns about the density best deals to travel to europe of people/building; impact on local residents and local business, while another expresses best deals to travel to europe dismay at the lack of consulatation:
But I am outraged that Lambeth seem to have completely failed to give this application the necessary publicity. Are the planners blissfully unaware that there are residents above some of the business premises best deals to travel to europe in Electric Lane/Electric Avenue?
best deals to travel to europe Coldharbour Lane is a mecca of small independent shops and restaurants. It has not yet succumbed to the high street giants like Starbucks and Costa that have invaded Brixton town centre over the past few years. What makes Brixton great is the independent businesses.
Much as I agree with the sentiments about trying to keep High Streets full of independent stores, it should be pointed out that Brixton already has a Costa and a Starbucks on its main drag, right next to several best deals to travel to europe phone shops and multinational chain stores.
What about the effect of this on the currently thriving Brixton nightlife? With Brixton Clubhouse practically next door, I can bet there won t be any more late night music events on the terrace, if this goes ahead! The events I have attended on the terrace have been great, and the venue is a welcome addition to Brixton. Surely the hotel will enforce low noise levels /restrict late night events etc?
Tahlee: I fear for a lot of Brixton s nighlife. When the new executive luxury flats open up opposite the Albert/414 on Coldharbour Lane, I expect the well heeled, vibrancy seeking newcomers to promptly start complaining about the noise.
You quote my petition in your article. To clarify, my point was that we already have an identikit high street on Brixton Road with its Starbucks and Costa Coldharbour Lane has not yet succumbed. I say we should keep it that way!
Personally I welcome the development. An international hotel chain willing to invest best deals to travel to europe in the area is surely best deals to travel to europe a good thing. As fars as I understand, there will be an entrance in Coldharbour Lane and the hotel itself will be built on top of the structure which holds H M, KFC, Prince of Wakes etc.
Woolworths were there for decades and they were hardly diverse. Better that H M replaced them than another pound shop or similar. M S have been in Brixton for over 100 years, Boots, KFC, Mcdonalds etc for decades and so on. Like them or loathe them, those chains are a healthy sign of confidence.
Brixton is big enough and vibrant best deals to travel to europe enough to be able to accommodate new businesses of all sizes who provide much needed employment and services for it s residents. best deals to travel to europe The side streets around the High Street and the market are buzzing best deals to travel to europe with independent traders and they would surely welcome the arrival of hotel guests who will be potential customers.
