Welcome to Dalston Square

Introduction

This website has been created to inform local residents and groups about the plans to transform Dalston with an exciting regeneration scheme.

The scheme includes:

  • Improved transport - the East London Line extension will open in 2010, providing new Tube connections, new rail links and a new station at Dalston Junction
  • Over 500 new homes including affordable housing
  • A major new public square
  • A new public library and archive
  • New shops and restaurants
  • New investment in Dalston bringing retail opportunities, more jobs and prosperity
  • Energy efficient measures such as green roofs and combined heat and power

It will be designed by a team of architects working on the two sites that include: John McAslan and Partners, Arup Associates, Weston Williamson and Goddard Manton.

Landscape architect Michel Desvigne has prepared a plan for the new square and working with J&L Gibbons, will use public feedback to prepare the detailed plans for the square.
