Three Mills West Stratford
February 21st, 2010
UPDATE: 13/11/25 It became QMU Aspire Point Stratford
UPDATE: 14/8/16 “A former Esso Petrol station is set to become a thriving student complex and arts centre thanks to Alumno Developments. Start on site Spring 2016″ – allegedly.
So a site I visited six years ago is happening without the single aspect flats I complained about below because the developer has changed and all the rooms will be single aspect as student rooms.
More single aspect flats
This scheme for Stratford passed for planning on 9th September following acceptance of the S106 agreement, depresses me because there are much better ways to design flats and avoid the problems of single aspect dwellings.

Planning reference: 09/01746/LTGDC
Drawing number: 2841_L102
Enlarge it to 150% and take a look at typical floor (3-7 & 10-23). 1 bed s/a facing SW. 2 bed s/a facing SE. 2 bed s/a facing NW which will have an intimate view of James Riley Point and its inhabitants. [No they won’t. James Riley Point is going to be demolished – Ed.] These are emphatically not back to backs. If the owners desire a change of air they can always open the front door and through ventilate the flat but it’s not ideal, and no choice of view. There are seven flats on each floor and of those three are single aspect.
