Brookes Estate
The regeneration of the Brooks Estate is inextricably linked
with the wider regeneration programme for this part of east
London. The estate is geographically well located close to
local transport links and shops and the proposed Community
Resource Centre on Plaistow Road will create a valuable community
and health provision for the area. This coupled with the residential
master plan, which will create hundreds of new homes in the
area presents a community in a state of catharsis. The challenge
of this competition is how best to develop proposals which
can work within this exciting context, improve the quality
of the housing stock and the built environment, while importantly,
minimising disruption to the existing community.
