Hill, of the New Jersey-based Kolinsky Hill Financial Group, offered a seductive description in pitching a new, multi-million-dollar real estate deal, which Hill had previously broached by phone.

Boris Johnson, convergence and the Carpenters estate
The word "regeneration" is, of course, derided by critics of the concept as a form of ruination; as a polite word for largely powerless communities and their homes being demolished to make way for the grand schemes of others. Thats pretty much the message of the short film below about the Carpenters estate, which lies just outside the boundary of the Olympic Park but has been far from unaffected by its advent. Most of the homes the Carpenters contains, primarily those in three tower blocks, are marked for demolition by Newham Council, which says the cost of refurbishing them is prohibitive. Residents are already being "decanted" from two of them to alternative dwellings.The estates Facebook page claims that only around 80 Council units will eventually remain compared with over 500 before. Yet the future of the estate and many of its residents is uncertain - a major grievance among those unhappy with the Councils plans. A new dimension to that uncertainty has now been added in the form of Boris Johnsons wish to create a Mayoral Development Corporation (MDC) under provisions of the Localism Bill. This would be called the Olympic Park Development Corporation would have ultimate control over the long-term evolution of not only the Olympic Park but also some of the land surrounding it, including the Carpenters estate. Boriss draft replacement London Plan, the master document which will guide the future development of the metropolis, identifies the Olympic Park and its environs as "Londons single most important regeneration project for the next 25 years," and affirms his commitment to the objective, also adopted by the Olympic boroughs, that the Games should close the "deprivation gap" between those boroughs and the rest of London. This is called the "convergence" principle. Yet as Ive previously documented, there is great pessimism about the future supply of genuinely affordable housing to all parts of London under the present government. Boris wants his MDC to "become the planning authority for the area" from next October, though City Hall tells me that its board would take planning decisions in partnership with the relevant borough. But whatever the precise arrangements can Boriss MDC ensure that present and recent residents of the Carpenters estate continue to live in their regenerated, post-Olympics neighbourhood if they still wish to when Londons "affordable" housing future looks so bleak? How "converged" with the rest of London will those priced out the place feel?Dave Hill guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]
